Description

Investigating Corruption and Misconduct in Public Office: Commissions of Inquiry – Powers and Procedures Second Edition provides a comprehensive examination of the law concerning the jurisdiction, powers and inquisitorial processes of commissions of inquiry.

Commissions of inquiry, such as Royal Commissions, are a powerful and effective means with which to identify and expose the truth concerning wrongdoing. State anti-corruption commissions are investigative bodies with far-reaching, coercive powers to identify and expose corruption and other forms of misconduct in public office.

There are important issues surrounding the procedures and powers of such bodies, including the extent to which fundamental civil rights - including the right to privacy, the right of silence, the privilege against self-incrimination and the right to reputation - may be affected by these.

It is essential for legal practitioners, those in government and public administration, and law enforcement agencies to understand the powers, practice and procedures of powerful commissions of inquiry. It is equally so for citizens participating as witnesses or persons of interest in the proceedings.
