The Legal Costs Committee does not tolerate corrupt or other improper conduct, including mismanagement of public resources, in the exercise of the public functions of the Legal Costs Committee and its officers, employees and contractors.

The Legal Costs Committee is committed to the aims and objectives of the Public Interest Disclosure Act 2003.  It recognises the value and importance of contributions of staff to enhance administrative and management practices and strongly supports disclosures being made by staff as to corrupt or other improper conduct.

The Legal Costs Committee will take all reasonable steps to provide protection to staff who make such disclosures from any detrimental action in reprisal for the making of a public interest disclosure.

The Legal Costs Committee does not tolerate any of its officers, employees or contractors engaging in acts of victimisation or reprisal against those who make public interest disclosures.
