The OECD has released its report on the level of implementation by Australia of its commitments under the OECD Convention on Prevention of Bribery of Foreign Public Officials.

The Report makes a number of recommendations to enhance Australia’s compliance with the Anti-Bribery Convention. It notes that although no cases have been prosecuted, the Australian Federal Police has opened three investigations (one which has been terminated) and is currently conducting two investigations.

It will be interesting to see whether the Cole Inquiry report makes any recommendations this area.
