The Corruption and Crime Commission commissioned an independent survey of 380 WA adults about the Commission and the public sector.
The Commission reported high public awareness and confidence in its complaint investigations, alongside broad support for its independence.
It also reported public concern about the detection of misconduct and possible consequences for people who complain.
The Commission cautioned that the results indicated possible issues and did not provide definitive answers.
It identified understanding of its role, confidence in complaints processes and expectations about preventing misconduct as areas to address.
In the body's own words
- Conclusion
Overall, the survey indicates a generally high level of recognition of and support for the Corruption and Crime Commission by the Western Australian community.
Findings and recommendations
Allegations are not findings. A commission's finding or opinion of corrupt conduct or misconduct is not a finding that a person is guilty of a criminal offence, and the commissions say so in their reports.
No findings or recommendations are reproduced in this record. This does not establish that the report contains none.
Published responses
No published response was found.
Notes on this record
- Report type assigned by OPAX from the title; the Commission tags every listing item Report.
Coverage
This publisher
- The Commission's website has no copyright or licence page; reports carry the Commission's copyright notice (fair dealing only), so OPAX keeps short verbatim extracts with citations and links the original PDFs.
- Only the reports listing (/publications/reports) is covered. Annual reports, quarterly reports filed under /quarterly-reports, media releases and news items are not report records.
- The listing date is the date the Commission's page was created; the record date is the report's cover date or the tabling date stated on the page where one is given, and the listing date only as a fallback.
- Opinions are extracted only where the Commission states them in a sentence on a single page; opinions in older reports framed differently, or split over a page break, are not extracted (findings not_extracted).
- No text layer, no OCR: scanned reports have no extracted opinions or recommendations.
