Inquiry into the Corruption and Crime Commission being able to prosecute its own charges
Committee on the Corruption and Crime Commission (2013 - 2017)· 13 August 2015inquiry_report
This 2015 WA parliamentary committee report details the suspension of an inquiry into whether the Corruption and Crime Commission (CCC) should have the power to prosecute its own charges. The committee halted the inquiry due to a pending Supreme Court appeal addressing the same issue, to avoid overlap. The committee intends to re-examine the issue after the court's decision.
Impact
The suspension affects the ongoing review of the CCC's powers and its relationship with the Director of Public Prosecutions. The outcome of the court case and potential future inquiry will impact the CCC, the DPP, and individuals subject to investigation and prosecution by the CCC.
