The CMC has investigative powers, not ordinarily available to the Police Service , for the purposes of enabling the commission to effectively investigate particular cases of major crime[http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/legis/qld/consol_act/cama2001191/s5.html]. The CMC also has the power to investigate cases of misconduct in the Queensland public sector, particularly the more serious cases of misconduct[http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/legis/qld/consol_act/cama2001191/s5.html]. The CMC is itself accountable to the Parliamentary Crime and Misconduct Committee {Link without Title} {Link without Title} of the Queensland Legislative Assembly . As the successor to the Criminal Justice Commission, the misconduct functions of the CMC exist primarily as a consequence of the Fitzgerald Inquiry Royal Commission findings of long-term, systemic political corruption, police corruption and abuse of power in Queensland {Link without Title} .
