The typical process would be that they go to the integrity commissioner with a disclosure. There's then a lengthy process that could take over a year before it's even assessed to decide whether they're going to investigate. Investigations often take more than a year. At the end of the investigation, there's often a conclusion that there's no wrongdoing. At that stage, there would be a report to Parliament.
That's a process that takes years. It very rarely works. We've had only 18 cases of founded wrongdoings in 17 years, out of 1,500 disclosures of wrongdoing.
It's a very slow process that rarely ever works, and the wrongdoing that has been reported is mostly really minor compared with other stuff that we've seen going on in the public service.
