In her second-reading reply she said the CCC's fundamental objective is 'to continuously improve the integrity of, and to reduce the incidence of, corruption in the public sector' and that 'we went to the election with a simple promise to restore the CCC's powers, and today we deliver on that promise for the benefit of all Queenslanders.'
