Joint Standing Committee on the Corruption & Crime Commission to Continue after Dissolution of Parliament

Committee on the Corruption and Crime Commission (2005 - 2008)· 26 October 2006general_report

This 2006 WA parliamentary committee report recommends amending the Corruption and Crime Commission Act 2003 to allow the Joint Standing Committee on the Corruption and Crime Commission to continue its oversight function even after the dissolution of Parliament. This would align WA with Queensland legislation and ensure continuous scrutiny of the CCC. The committee argues this is vital given the CCC's ongoing operations and the need for accumulated knowledge.

Impact

The proposed amendment would affect the Corruption and Crime Commission, the Parliamentary Inspector, members of parliament, and the public sector by ensuring continuous oversight of corruption and crime matters.
