NT ICAC calls are corruption allegations

THE NT Treasurer has defended the government's refusal to institute an ICAC, saying calls for one were baseless allegations of corruption.

THE Northern Territory's Treasurer has shouted down a morning radio host who asked for an independent anti-corruption body be set up, accusing him of making baseless allegations of corruption.

THE government has resisted creating an ICAC-type institution, despite the Ombudsman recommending one in this month's review of police misconduct.
