Summary
"The object of this review is twofold: firstly, to identify the kinds of criminal or quasi-criminal misconduct that may occur in local government , whether by elected officials, staff, or independent contractors; and secondly, and to ascertain what tools, if any, have been developed to assist elected officials in preventing fraud, bribery or corruption in local government. Consideration will also be given to areas in which there is a potential need for additional such tools to be developed to assist municipal actors in preventing and avoiding such conduct."--Page 1.
