rearrangement was followed by evaluating the Commission staff skills, conducted in 2001 byErnst and Young. This examination showed deficiencies in areas such as leadership and riskassessment. In response to this, the ICAC introduced the ‘Learning and Development’program to improve and upgrade its staff skills.14This is also important in assessing whether astatutory anti-corruption body should be implemented in Libya. 6.1.2Legislation and JurisdictionSection 13 of the current ICAC Act sets out in detail the Commission’s functions. Thefunctions can be categorised into five major categories: Investigating corruption complaints,reviewing policy, work procedures and laws, providingan advisory role and performing aneducative function. It is also responsible for communicatingthe results of its investigationstoappropriate authorities.15 The Act defies corrupt conduct as intentional and moral wrongdoingrather than mistake or negligence. “Corrupt conduct, as defined in theIndependent Commission Against Corruption Act 1988("the ICAC Act"), is deliberate or intentional wrongdoing, not negligence or a mistake. It has to involve or affect a NSW public official or public sector organisation.While it can take many forms, corrupt conduct occurs when:a public official improperly uses, or tries to improperly use, the knowledge, power or resources of their position for personal gain or the advantage of othersa public official dishonestly exercises his or her official functions, or improperly exercises his or her official functions in a partial manner, breaches public trust or misuses information or material acquired during the course of his or her official functionsa member of the public influences, or tries to influence, a public official to use his or her position in a way that is dishonest or partiala member of the public engages in conduct that could involve one of the matters set out in section 8(2A) of the ICAC Act where such conduct impairs, or could impair, public confidence in public administration.The NSW community expects public officials to perform their duties with honesty and in the best interests of the public. Corrupt conduct by a public official involves a breach of public trust that can lead to inequality, wasted resources or public money and reputational damage.Some examples of corrupt conduct are:a local councillor voting in favour of a development in which the councillor has an undisclosed financial interesta member of the public bribing an official to pass a drivers licence testa former public official selling confidential information gained while working in an official capacity.14 FIRST NAME Masters, A.B. and Adam Graycar, , 2016.
