TI Australia is concerned that the current (April 2018) prospective priority themes and commitments for the OGP NAP2 does not adequately meet the OGP commitment to promote transparency, empower citizens, fight corruption, and harness new technologies to strengthen governance.
TIA recommends the following issues be addressed in the OGP NAP2:
- Establishment of a federal anti-corruption agency
- Whistleblower protection
- Lobbyists, political donations and revolving doors
- Procurement, open contracting and access to information
- Beneficial Ownership and EITI
- Anti-Money laundering
- Combating corruption and protecting human rights
- Responsible Business Conduct and the SDG’s
- Social and Environmental Impact Assessment (SEIA) verification and disclosure
- Corruption in Sport
