A newly-released survey of public servants has led to fresh calls for a national anti-corruption body. An Australian Public Service Commission survey has found five per cent of respondents witnessed misconduct in 2016-2017. That's an increase on the 2.6 per cent who said they had witnessed misconduct in a similar survey three years earlier. Greens leader Richard Di Natale says, unlike his party, neither the government nor the Labor party will support a federal anti-corruption body resembling the ones seen in many states around the country. He says that's because they're afraid of what such a body might find.
