Crime and Corruption Commission

Judge to lead watchdog plan
Peter Rolfe From: Sunday Herald

EXCLUSIVE: A FOUR-member panel led by a former Victorian Supreme Court judge will shape Victoria's first ongoing commission into corruption. The new Victorian corruption-fighting authority will be given unprecedented manpower, funding and permission to spy on public servants, the Baillieu Government has revealed.

An army of 300 spooks, snoops and eaves-droppers will be employed by the Victorian Independent Broad-based Anti-corruption Commission in a bid to stamp out dishonest dealings and unscrupulous behaviour in the public service.

The Government will unveil today a four-member vanguard of prominent former judges and legal experts to spearhead its efforts in developing an anti-corruption policy unique to Victoria.
