The Office of Police Integrity
The Office of Police Integrity (OPI) is an independent police anti-corruption and oversight organisation.
Our role is to ensure that Victoria Police maintains the highest ethical and professional standards.
Video message
We detect, investigate and prevent police corruption and serious misconduct; examine police practices and procedures to ensure they work effectively; and monitor and review the way Victoria Police investigates or conciliates complaints. This work is carried out with a view to ensuring Victoria Police meets community expectations.
Through education, research and working with Victoria Police, we develop and implement corruption-resistant strategies.
An independent statutory officer, the Special Investigations Monitor, oversees our use of investigative powers. As an independent body, OPI reports directly to Parliament.
Mr Michael Strong, a former Judge of the County Court, is the current Director, Police Integrity. The Police Integrity Act 2008 contains OPI's functions and powers.
