The ACT Integrity Commission investigated allegations that corrections officers missed required detainee observations at the Alexander Maconochie Centre.
The Commission found that a corrections officer missed mandatory medical observations and made four false entries in a detainee’s observation record.
It also found that the general manager neglected to follow up the complaint, arranged misleading information for the Official Visitor and failed to address compliance problems.
Despite its adverse findings about the officer and general manager, the Commission made no finding of corrupt conduct against either.
