A panel of experts has a solution to tackling organised crime but won't yet say what it is. 

The Ministerial Advisory Group on Transnational, Serious and Organised Crime has put out a new list of recommendations ahead of its final report later this month. 

Among the suggestions are greater accountability across government departments and a new minister whose entire job is working on the problem.  

Group chair Steve Symon told Mike Hosking the overall solution is bold. 

He says they've had a lot of encouragement; the question is whether it will translate into financial support and the political will it needs.
