Commonwealth Integrity Survey receives 60,000 responses 

The Commission’s inaugural Commonwealth Integrity Survey has now closed. Held over a period of 5 weeks, around 60,000 individuals from across the Commonwealth public sector responded to the survey, which collected observations and perceptions of integrity and corruption in the Commission’s jurisdiction. 

The survey data will be used to assess corruption risks in the Commonwealth public sector, raise potential corruption vulnerabilities, and identify any issues, topics or themes that can inform the Commission’s corruption prevention and education initiatives. 

The Commission will provide agency heads with their individual, de-identified reports and will also publish high-level survey results and insights from November.
