Show Notes
In Tasmania, a new parliamentary group advocates for public integrity, aiming to restore trust in democracy through evidence-based reforms. Meanwhile, the state parliament passes motions to bolster oversight and accountability. Criticism surrounds existing watchdogs like the Integrity Commission, Ombudsman, and Auditor-General due to limited powers and a resistant public service culture. Voters are losing faith in major parties due to secrecy issues, including no public logs of right-to-information requests. Parliament responds with action, agreeing to make right-to-information results public for certain entities but rejecting automatic cabinet document releases. These steps signal growing momentum for ethical governance in Tasmania.
