Open Officials' Financial Trails to Investigators

GREEN WHITE GO MANIFESTO — 2026.10.01 · CANONICAL THREE-SENTENCE UNIT

Properly authorised investigators may trace the financial dealings of senior officials in serious corruption investigations, but access itself must be controlled and auditable and seeing information does not confer power to seize, restrain or punish.

Searches, restraint, seizure and other coercive actions remain subject to the lawful judicial and procedural safeguards that govern them, while query permissions, access logs, review triggers, data minimisation, retention and investigative workflows belong in legislation and the Integrity Policy Paper.

The purpose is to let investigators follow serious financial evidence while ensuring that investigative visibility does not become uncontrolled coercive power.

Why it sits here

The purpose is to let investigators follow serious financial evidence while ensuring that investigative visibility does not become uncontrolled coercive power.

EVIDENCE

Evidence and limits

Disclosure, audit and fiscal control must be assessed separately. Transparency is not a guarantee of savings, and seeing a financial trail is not authority to spend or seize funds.

The proposal remains distinct from current law and from evidence for individual components.
