The Commission’s internal investigations workshop will assist public officers to conduct thorough and fair internal investigations.

Workshop: What Happened? How to Conduct an Internal Investigation

Senior Commission investigators and lawyers offer participants valuable tools to ensure internal investigations are properly planned, carried out fairly and focused on truth-finding.

The capacity to conduct thorough and timely internal investigations is essential in preserving an organisation’s integrity. An internal investigation can be used to identify inappropriate and unacceptable behaviour, poor policies and procedures, and failures in process.
