NSW Premier Chris Minns is vowing to press ahead with divisive safety measures in response to the Bondi massacre, even if they upset people.
Hours after the Royal Commission on Anti-Semitism and Social Cohesion delivered an interim report with 14 recommendations on Thursday, the premier vowed to pass legislation to protect his state.
Recommendations included increasing security at Jewish events, tighter gun laws and reviewing how counter-terror agencies worked together.
"Some of them will be controversial, not all of them will be accepted by everybody ... but we are going to chart a course that keeps NSW safe even if it risks upsetting people in the process," Mr Minns said.
Security arrangements for the Hanukkah festival at Sydney's popular Bondi Beach, where 15 people were shot dead in December, will remain under scrutiny in the weeks and months ahead.
Four NSW Police officers and one area commander attended the event, despite warnings the Jewish community was experiencing heightened levels of vilification and the risk of a terrorist attack was "likely", according to a Jewish security protection plan handed to police.
The Jewish Community Security Group identified the likelihood of violent or anti-Semitic incidents as elevated due to the visibility of "identifiably Jewish" people and the prominence of the festival.
Police planned internally to provide a high-visibility presence, but noted there was "no need to stay the entire duration", according to the report.
NSW Police told the commission decisions on the allocation of resources took into account a range of factors including the size and type of event and attendance of dignitaries.
Tighter security arrangements, such as for Jewish holidays Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, should apply to other high-risk community gatherings, the report recommended.
NSW Jewish Board of Deputies chief executive Michele Goldman said the report "clearly focuses on the need for greater co-ordination between our agencies".
President David Ossip said the findings confirmed the community's belief the frequency and severity of anti-Semitism in Australia had increased.
"Jewish Australians have increasingly been targeted not just with words, but with violence," he said.
Anthony Albanese said the Commonwealth would adopt all recommendations amid a global rise in anti-Semitism.
"Five months on from the attack, Australia's Jewish community is still grieving, still hurting, still craving answers," the prime minister said.
Despite identifying room for improvement in Australia's response to anti-Semitism, former High Court judge and commission head Virginia Bell said there were no areas "requiring urgent or immediate action".
The report recommended prioritising efforts to implement the National Firearms Agreement and National Gun Buyback Scheme to purchase and destroy surplus, newly banned and illegal firearms.
A review of Australia's joint counter-terrorism network was also recommended, including leadership structures, team integration, systems access and information-sharing arrangements.
It recommended giving the Australia-New Zealand Counter-Terrorism Committee more power to advise the government on terror threats, including providing direct advice to national cabinet at least annually.
Mr Albanese said the National Security Committee had met and would implement all recommendations relevant to the Commonwealth, urging states and territories to also engage in reform.
He pushed back on suggestions the government had not done enough.
"There has been a rise in anti-Semitism that is a global phenomenon that has occurred since the October (2023) actions of Hamas," Mr Albanese said.
"Governments need to respond to it. We are responding to it."
Sajid Akram was shot dead during the Bondi massacre while his son, Naveed Akram, remains before the courts on terrorism and multiple murder charges.
The commission will hold an initial block of public hearings in Sydney from Monday to May 15, addressing Jewish-Australian lived experiences of anti-Semitism.
The commission will hand down its final report before the end of the year.
