Corruption, misconduct and maladministration

There are clear pathways to report suspected wrongdoing in public administration, including regarding the lobbyist register or lobbying conduct.

You should make a complaint if you think that someone has broken the law or has acted in a way that is seriously inappropriate or negligent relating to the administration of the lobbyist register or about lobbying conduct. The Office for Public Integrity gives clear instructions for the steps you need to take.
