A new section of the Integrity Commission’s website will allow the public to see which of its recommendations the Tasmanian public sector has adopted.
The recommendations are drawn from investigations, audits and research reports. Chief Commissioner Greg Melick said the website is part of the Commission’s new Oversight and Compliance Program.
“The new pages set up a transparent mechanism that lets members of the public see the extent to which the public sector is acting on the Commission’s advice,” Chief Commissioner Melick said.
The page forms part of a larger section of the website which provides members of the public with detailed information about the Oversight and Compliance function.
“The Oversight and Compliance Team assists both our investigative and educational functions,” Chief Commissioner Melick said.
“Their work helps us understand an organisation’s processes and its capacity to manage misconduct matters.
“It informs how we educate and engage with organisations to help ensure misconduct is managed effectively. It also helps us understand misconduct risks and trends in the public sector.
“We want to help the public understand how the Commission deals with complaints.
“Our intention is that reporting via the new webpage will hold relevant organisations to account and ensure appropriate action is taken to manage misconduct in the public sector.”
A detailed explanation of our Oversight and Compliance Program for 2023 to 2026 is on our website.
