8.4 Anti-corruption agencies

As the above discussion illustrates, a number of anti-corruption agencies have been established in Australia, accompanied by legislative and policy changes to address corruption. New Zealand, however, has no dedicated anti-corruption body, instead relying on the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) to conduct corruption inquiries in addition to its core function. The corruption role for the SFO followed the first conviction in New Zealand of a serving member of parliament for corruption. Table 8.2 below gives a snapshot of the work of the SFO.

Whilst Australia and New Zealand differ in their approach to tackling corruption, cases do arise that involve both nations, as the following example illustrates.
