The Office of the Integrity Commissioner |
|
|
|
In 2004, the City of Toronto became the first municipality in Canada to create the office of the Integrity Commissioner.
City Council has passed Codes of Conduct to govern Members of Council, Members of Local Boards (Restricted Definition) and Adjudicative Boards in Toronto.
The Integrity Commissioner provides advice and education to Members of Council, Members of Local Boards (Restricted Definition) and Adjudicative Boards to assist in maintaining a high standard of ethical behaviour in City government.
The Integrity Commissioner also plays a role in investigating complaints (formal or informal) about the conduct of Members of Council, Members of Local Boards (Restricted Definition) and Adjudicative Boards and in determining whether or not there has been a violation of the City Codes of Conduct.
City Council receives an annual report from the Integrity Commissioner on the work of the office. From time to time, City Council refers matters to the Integrity Commissioner as part of building an ethical and accountable culture at City Hall.
