Pushback against ICAC? /stretton/events/list/2021/10/webinar-diminishing-public-trust-pushback-against-icac Recent amendments to the Independent Commissioner against Corruption Act in South ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog have narrowed definitions of misconduct, maladministration and corruption reducing the ICAC’s powers. This pushback is examined in this webinar.  Had the ICAC over-reached?  Did it need its wings clipped? Or might something else have been in play?
