Who Can Request an Investigation by the SCI?
SCI investigations over the years have been undertaken as a result of contacts and referrals from many different sources. The Governor, members of the Legislature, and other public officials at the federal, state, county and local level can bring matters before the Commission. So can average taxpayers. In fact, a substantial measure of the SCI’s most recent work targeting abuses in new home construction and local government corruption has had its genesis in complaints filed by taxpayers. Rebuffed in their search for investigative help elsewhere in government, they turned to the SCI, and its Web site Hot Line and got results.
