Queensland Consolidated Acts. Retrieved on 4 July 2011.〕 The CCC also has the power to investigate cases of misconduct in the Queensland public sector, particularly the more serious cases of misconduct.〔 The CCC is itself accountable to the Parliamentary Crime and Corruption Committee of the Legislative Assembly of Queensland.〔(Crime And Misconduct Act 2001 - Section 292 )''. Queensland Consolidated Acts. Retrieved on 4 July 2011.〕〔(Queensland Parliament establishes new committee system ). Retrieved on 4 July 2011.〕 As the successor to the Criminal Justice Commission, the misconduct functions of the CCC exist primarily as a consequence of the Fitzgerald Inquiry Royal Commission findings of long-term, systemic political corruption, police corruption and abuse of power in Queensland.〔Fitzgerald, G.E. (Commission of Inquiry into Possible Illegal Activities and Associated Police Misconduct ). Retrieved on 4 July 2011.〕 ==History== The commission was established after the publishing of a report by Bob Bottom. It conducted a high-profile investigation into matters related to the 2004 Palm Island death in custody. In 2007, the CMC director of intelligence claimed that a lack of telephone interception or phone tapping powers meant crime bosses in Queensland were avoiding prosecution. In 2010, the first public hearings conducted by the CMC were held in relation to police corruption on the Gold Coast following the Operation Tesco misconduct probe. In 2012, the Newman Government reduced funding to the organisation by 1%. The cuts had a disproportionate effect on staff numbers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Crime and Corruption Commission」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
