Crime and Corruption Act 2001

The Minister has a responsibility to ensure that the commission operates to best practice standards.

To help the Minister discharge that responsibility, the commission must report to the Minister, when and in the way required by the Minister, on the efficiency, effectiveness, economy and timeliness of the commission and its systems and processes, including operational processes.

The report must be accompanied by any financial or other reports the Minister requires to enable the Minister to assess the efficiency, effectiveness, economy or timeliness of the commission, including, in particular, the timeliness with which the commission deals with complaints.

The commission must comply with a Ministerial request under this section.

This section does not require the commission to give the Minister any details that, if given—

would prejudice a current sensitive operation of, or investigation by, the commission; or

may threaten—

the security of a protected person; or

the integrity of the witness protection program or other witness protection activities of the commission.
