Will this be a turning point for citizen trust and Australia’s reputation, after Australia’s fall on Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index to its lowest point ever? The Morrison Government’s inability to produce a suitable model for a federal anti-corruption commission in 2018-22 proved pivotal in tipping Australians to change the government, but what next for that reform, and what else is needed to arrest our sliding national integrity performance and restore public trust?
