New laws targeting organised crime and outlaw motorcycle gangs, which would deliver greater powers to police, have been introduced in New South Wales.

Police Minister Troy Grant said the laws would impose new orders on people engaged in organised crimes including outlaw motorcycle gangs.

Mr Grant said the legislation would make it harder for organised crime gangs to operate because police would have more power to take preventative action against them.

"Today is a clear message to them that we are going to take you on and take you out," he said.

If the bill is passed, it will allow senior police to issue public safety orders to gang members, preventing them from going to and from a public place or premises for 72 hours.

"If we come across credible information and intelligence that suggests there's going to be some conflict at a particular place or event, we are able to go out and make an order in regards to that particular person or groups," Assistant Commissioner Mark Jenkins said.

Individuals face five years' jail for breaches

The order can stay in place for five years and if it is breached an individual could face five years' jail.

The order can be challenged in the Supreme Court.

Under the proposed new laws, police can also apply to the Supreme or District Courts for a serious crime prevention order which can prohibit a person's activities, who they associate with, their business dealings and stop the use of certain technology such as a mobile phone or computer.

The order would be imposed on a person convicted of a serious crime or suspected of being engaged in crime-related activity.

"These new serious crime prevention orders are a significant step forward in giving police the arsenal to take on organised crime, groups, gangs, international crime interests or outlaw motorcycle gangs who operate and prey on our New South Wales economy," Mr Grant said.

Police Commissioner Andrew Scipione said the legislation would compliment other laws introduced in recent years.

"We will be able to be flexible, agile and nimble in the way that we go about dismantling those crime groups we target," he said.

That includes the controversial anti-bikie consorting laws introduced to stop convicted criminals from associating with each other.

"This legislation specifically targets individuals and their activities in relation to organised crime activity and the crimes that are being committed," Mr Grant said.

The legislation also proposes tougher penalties for dealing in the proceeds of crime.
