The above categories do not capture all the corruption investigations and some investigations fall under multiple categories, but they provide a flavour of the Commission’s activities. In considering them, it is important to remember that most corruption investigations do not ultimately result in a finding of corrupt conduct. 

More information on the Commission’s investigations and operational activity in its first year will be made available in its forthcoming 2023-24 Annual Report.
