Very strongly agree

No, we should establish a national broad-based anti-corruption watchdog instead

The Labor Party has been a strong advocate for a national broad-based anti-corruption watchdog. In 2018, they announced their commitment to establish a National Integrity Commission if they were to win the federal election. This commission would have jurisdiction over all sectors, including the construction industry, and would be a more comprehensive approach to tackling corruption.
