The CAsA way.

Breaches of the regs are strict liability criminal offences. Which one they use depends how hard they want to whack you. Thats for pilots etc/casa "clients"

CAsA personnel who engage in criminal conduct are the ones that get 'administative' sanctions ie the wet lettuce treatment.

Breaches of the criminal codes, both State and Federal are "re-directed"/ corruptly subverted by CAsA legal/ ECC to just breaches of the CaSA 'Code of Conduct...that has NO provisions in it for criminal conduct.
Unlike the APSC/Aust Public Service Commission code that does.

Which makes the CAsA 'code' a get out of jail free card.

For those that read the Oz last friday article about the sneaking away of the ECC....the (No) Ethics and(Mis)Conduct committee, which has played the downgrade card with aplomb in the past.

Fear not... in the recent "renewal" machinations within CAsA there is a like outfit now dealing with investigations into complaints to the ICC/ Industry Complaints Commissioner.

New moniker, different chairs, same deck on the bum boat, unfortunately.

Its now called People and Culture division. And they have an 'ops manual' of sorts
"Manual for the dealing with breaches of the code of conduct"

Is this the illegitimate son of the ECC.? Probably.

Recent results show its the 'same old'

CYA 101 comes to mind.
