Do recent events such as the controversies over Sky City, election funding, ministerial expenses and so on raise questions about the standards of behaviour demanded of New Zealand’s public figures? If so, are there lessons that can be drawn from elsewhere about how to monitor and anticipate risks to public integrity? Perhaps one instructional example can be found in the United Kingdom’s Committee for Standards in Public Life (CSPL).
