Mardi Gras organisers and New South Wales Police have reached an agreement allowing officers to march in this year’s parade, but with a caveat—they are to only attend out of uniform.

Debate about police presence at the Mardi Gras parade intensified when their invitation to march was revoked following the arrest of Senior Constable Beau Lamarre-Condon, 28, for the alleged murders of Jesse Baird, 26, and his boyfriend Luke Davies, 29.
