Menu12/18/18: A post by Martin Kenney, Managing Partner of Martin Kenney & Co., Solicitors, on The FCPA Blog drills into a question triggered by an open letter signed by a number of former Australian judges calling for a national anti-corruption body.
Kenney notes, “The judges are seeking what they describe as a "National Integrity Commission" to restore public trust in Australian democracy, citing current secrecy as being at the core of the corrupt conduct. They believe that existing agencies, deemed to be overseers of governmental integrity, lack the powers and wherewithal to fully investigate the question of impartiality and the basis of the decisions being made.” The issues don’t belong solely to Australia.
