Independent Commission Against Corruption (NSW)
OrganisationReferenced in 4 bills
Local Government Electoral (Implementing Stage 1 of Belcarra) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2018
This bill bans political donations from property developers to candidates, councillors, political parties and third parties at both state and local government levels in Queensland. It also significantly strengthens the rules for how local government councillors must declare and manage conflicts of interest, following recommendations from the Crime and Corruption Commission's Operation Belcarra investigation into corruption risks in local government.
Crime and Corruption and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2017
This bill broadens what counts as 'corrupt conduct' in Queensland and gives the Crime and Corruption Commission (CCC) wider powers to investigate corruption, including conduct by people outside the public sector. It also forces the CCC to give people a chance to respond before publishing damaging findings about them, and cleans up the disciplinary rules for officers moving between the CCC, public service, ambulance and fire services.
Crime and Corruption and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2018
This bill strengthens Queensland's anti-corruption framework by widening the definition of 'corrupt conduct' and giving the Crime and Corruption Commission broader powers to investigate corruption risks. It also implements recommendations from two parliamentary committee reviews to improve how the Commission handles disciplinary matters, shares information, and treats people named in its reports.
Local Government Electoral (Implementing Belcarra) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2017
This bill responds to the Crime and Corruption Commission's Operation Belcarra report by banning political donations from property developers to candidates, councillors, political parties and state MPs in Queensland. It also tightens the rules on how councillors must handle conflicts of interest at council meetings, with new criminal offences and the possibility of being barred from office for four years.
