9.  Accountability, transparency and probity

The Government of Western Australia has a responsibility to the people of Western Australia to ensure that it is open and accountable in its dealings and that it promotes the State's best interests. A PPP may therefore involve scrutiny by the Parliament, the Auditor-General and the public through freedom of information processes.

There are also statutory requirements that government must comply with in its dealings, such as the State Supply Commission Act, the Financial Management Act and the Public Works Act.
