What we do
The Integrity Commission helps maintain trust in Tasmania’s public sector by promoting ethical behaviour, accountability and transparency.
We oversight public sector conduct, respond to complaints about alleged misconduct and provide training, education and advice to the Tasmanian public sector.
We prevent misconduct
We work to prevent misconduct by helping people and organisations understand what misconduct is, why it matters, and how to avoid it.
Our training and education programs give public sector employees and organisations practical tools to make ethical decisions and respond appropriately when issues arise.
Explore available programs at our training page.
We receive and deal with complaints about misconduct
We deal with complaints about the conduct of public sector employees.
Anyone can make a complaint to us about Tasmanian public sector misconduct.
Learn how to make a complaint at the Reporting Misconduct page.
We investigate and provide oversight
We can investigate alleged misconduct using our statutory powers. Investigations may begin after we receive a complaint or if our Board decides to start an investigation on its own initiative.
When we investigate, we work to establish the facts and determine whether misconduct has occurred.
Find out how investigations work at our Investigating Misconduct page.
Through our Oversight and Compliance program, we monitor and review how public sector organisations investigate and respond to misconduct.
We have specific oversight powers in relation to Tasmania Police.
Strategic Plan 2026-2029
The Integrity Commission Tasmania's Strategic Plan 2026-2029 sets out our vision, strategic direction, and key focus areas for advancing integrity, accountability, and ethical conduct across the Tasmanian public sector.
The plan outlines how we will support high standards in public administration, build community confidence, assist public authorities to prevent and address misconduct, and promote a culture of integrity through education, engagement, and oversight. It also sets out how we will enhance the Commission’s capability, governance, and effectiveness.
Providing a clear framework for our activities over the next four years, the plan will guide decision-making, performance evaluation, and our response to emerging challenges. By focusing on measurable outcomes and continuous improvement, it supports a more accountable, ethical, and transparent public sector while helping to strengthen trust in Tasmania’s public institutions.
