IBAC is Victoria's anti-corruption agency within the government administration landscape, charged with preventing and exposing corruption and police misconduct in the public sector. It investigates serious corruption and police misconduct, and informs the public sector, police, and the community about the risks and impacts of corruption. The agency operates independently of the government while remaining accountable to Victorians through the State Parliament, and is based in Melbourne, Victoria. It is a statutory authority serving as a mid-sized oversight body within the state's governance framework. In August 2024, Alison Byrne was appointed Chief Executive Officer, signaling a leadership transition. The agency has undertaken high-profile investigations and published significant reports, including the 2023 Operation Sandon special report addressing governance gaps between councils and property developers.
