Two people charged during IBAC's Operation Perseus
Today the Independent Broad-based Anti-corruption Commission (IBAC) conducted searches at a number of premises under warrant. Following this activity, two Victorian Building Authority (VBA) employees have been charged with criminal offences relating to the assessment of builder registrations, in exchange for a financial benefit.
These actions against key persons of interest are a result of IBAC’s Operation Perseus – an investigation into allegations of corrupt conduct at the VBA related to the assessment of builder registrations, in exchange for a financial benefit.
Please note: This investigation remains ongoing and IBAC will not be providing further comment at this stage.
