The Queensland Government has continued its approach of stability in the Crime and Corruption Commission (CCC) by reappointing Peter Dowling as an Ordinary Commissioner for a further three-year term.
State Attorney-General Deb Frecklington said Mr Dowling’s reappointment followed the reappointment of CCC Chairperson Bruce Barbour and CEO Jen O’Farrell in May.
Attorney-General Frecklington said the reappointment had received the bipartisan support of the Parliamentary Crime and Corruption Committee.
“Before being appointed to the CCC in November 2022 as an Ordinary Commissioner, Mr Dowling was a partner at Ernst Young and has more than 25 years’ experience as a non-executive company director on government and private boards, including in the finance, insurance, health, education, electricity, and mining sectors.”
She said he had also served as an independent audit and risk committee member covering local, state, and federal government, and private sector entities.
“Mr Dowling brings extensive board experience and an impressive breadth of professional skills to this role, which is why I had no hesitation in reappointing him for a further term.
“I would like to particularly acknowledge the contribution he has made to setting the strategic direction of the Commission and to the extensive reform programs currently underway.”
