The Parliamentary Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security (PJCIS) is holding a public hearing for its Review of Item 250 of the National Anti-Corruption Commission (Consequential and Transitional Provisions) Bill 2022.
Public hearing
18 November 2022
10.30 am – 1.45 pm
Committee Room 2R1, Parliament House, Canberra
The Committee’s website has a full program for the hearing
Subsection 110A(1) of the TIA Act defines 'criminal law-enforcement agency', being an agency that is permitted to obtain stored communications warrants and to give authorisations for access to telecommunications data under the TIA Act.
Item 250 of Schedule 1 to the Consequential Bill amends the definition of criminal law-enforcement agency to remove the reference to the Australian Commission for Law Enforcement Integrity and insert a reference to the National Anti-Corruption Commission. The Bill proposes that this Item would ensure the new Commission can exercise TIA Act powers, to effectively investigate corrupt conduct that could be serious or systemic where the conduct concerned meets the existing thresholds in the TIA Act.
Teleconference and video conference facilities may be used to connect witnesses to Committee Members. The hearings will be broadcast live at aph.gov.au/live.
Further information on the inquiry can be obtained from the Committee’s website.
