Public Integrity & Oversight
Independent bodies exist to oversee the operations of public authorities in South Australia (including councils), and to uphold standards of public integrity.
ICAC
The Independent Commissioner Against Corruption (ICAC) and the Office for Public Integrity (OPI) were established under the Independent Commissioner Against Corruption Act 2012 to identify and investigate misconduct, maladministration and corruption in public administration.
Any person or public officer may make a complaint, report or disclosure to the OPI about a public integrity matter relating to a government agency.

Ombudsman SA
The South Australian Ombudsman is an independent officer that investigates complaints about South Australian government agencies, conducts audits of these agencies, and reviews freedom of information determinations of these agencies.
Any person, group of people, body or organisation which is directly affected by a decision or failure to act by a government agency may make a complaint to the Ombudsman.
