Overview
The Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC) published its Fraud and Corruption Control Policy (Version 1.0) in July 2025. This is an internal governance document. It does not impose obligations on licensed builders or tradespeople.
Who this policy covers
The policy applies to QBCC staff, board members, contractors, and consultants working for the QBCC.
What the policy covers
The policy sets out how the QBCC prevents, detects, and responds to fraud and corruption within its own organisation. The policy requires all QBCC officers to report suspected fraud or corruption.
