Victoria's IBAC的负责人Victoria Elliott(Victoria Elliott)正在推动立法改革,以扩大该机构的反腐败权力,指出该机构目前仅限于严重刑事犯罪的限制过于狭窄。 Victoria Elliott, head of Victoria’s IBAC, is pushing for legislative changes to expand the agency’s anti-corruption powers, citing its current limit to only serious criminal offences as too narrow. 她辩称,门槛比其他各州和联邦政府更严格,阻碍了对政治偏袒和违反道德等广泛问题的调查。 She argues the threshold is stricter than other states and the federal government, hindering investigations into widespread issues like political favouritism and ethical breaches. Elliott寻求更广泛的权力,以调查违反公众信任的行为,便利公开听证,以及“跟随美元”权力,通过复杂的合同追踪公共资金。 Elliott seeks broader authority to probe public trust violations, easier public hearings, and “follow the dollar” powers to trace public funds through complex contracts. 虽然她没有证实正在进行的调查,但她注意到Jacinta Allan总理在2024年向IBAC和警察提交了建筑行业腐败指控。 While not confirming ongoing probes, she notes Premier Jacinta Allan referred building industry corruption allegations to IBAC and police in 2024. 改革旨在使维多利亚州符合国家标准并提高透明度。 The reforms aim to align Victoria with national standards and boost transparency.
