Closing the Oversight Gap - Joint Standing Committee on the Corruption and Crime Commission - Terms of Reference

Procedure and Privileges Committee (2013 - 2017)· 10 November 2016general_report

The WA Procedure and Privileges Committee investigated amending the terms of reference for the Joint Standing Committee on the Corruption and Crime Commission (JSCCCC) to include oversight of the Public Sector Commissioner's (PSC) handling of minor misconduct. The report recommends amending Standing Orders to grant the JSCCCC this oversight, aiming to close a perceived gap in the state's integrity framework. The Legislative Council is invited to pass a similar resolution.

Impact

The change aims to strengthen public sector integrity by providing parliamentary oversight of the PSC's handling of minor misconduct. It affects public sector employees, agencies, and the public by ensuring greater accountability and transparency in misconduct management.
