Fraud control
About
Council is committed to:
- preventing, deterring, detecting and investigating all forms of fraud and corruption.
- protecting its revenue, expenditure and assets from any attempt by members of the public, contractors, agents, intermediaries or its own employees to gain financial or other benefits by deceit or dishonest conduct.
We have established an environment in which fraud is not tolerated and in which councillors and staff are naturally reluctant to act dishonestly. This environment promotes a culture where all fraudulent activities, once noticed or legitimately suspected, are reported, investigated and resolved in a timely and fair manner.
