Other commentators have analysed the difficulties of ensuring the transparency and accountability of those integrity agencies with particular responsibilities for maintaining national security or investigating corruption. Noting the proliferation of integrity agencies, their powers and functions, Chief Justice Wayne Martin AC uses the same analytic tools but applies them to integrity agencies more generally, using Western Australia as an example. The Chief Justice argues that the precise role of this developing \u00e2\u20ac\u0153fourth arm of government\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and its relationship to the traditional checks and balances of a Westminster system of government remain unclear.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To purchase this article, complete the <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.thomsonreuters.com.au\/journals\/subscribe-or-purchase\/individual-article-sale\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Individual Article Sale<\/a> order form and email it to <a href=\"mailto:tlranz.journal.orders@thomsonreuters.com\">tlranz.journal.orders@thomsonreuters.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.westlaw.com.au\/maf\/wlau\/app\/document?endChunk=1&amp;startChunk=1&amp;parentguid=AUNZ_AU_JOURNALS_TOC%7C%7CIeca9381e96a511e39f3ef83c25a5d2b7&amp;docguid=Ieca9381b96a511e39f3ef83c25a5d2b7&amp;epos=1&amp;tocDs=AUNZ_AU_JOURNALS_TOC&amp;resultType=list&amp;isTocNav=true&amp;tocGuid=AUNZ_AU_JOURNALS_TOC%7C%7CIeca9382096a511e39f3ef83c25a5d2b7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b><i>Fiduciary reflections<\/i><\/b><\/a> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Paul Finn<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This article contains the author\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s personal reflections on the course of Australian fiduciary law since he first began to publish on it nearly 40 years ago. In the 1980s the High Court provided clear signposts for the future development of the law. Yet despite this we still remain no closer to agreeing upon a simple, intelligible and coherent account of the fiduciary principle and its rationale. It is suggested that we are heading, unnecessarily, in the opposite direction. Recent decisions, particularly of intermediate courts of appeal, have aided this process. Further, the province given the fiduciary principle is artificially small and distorted. Nowhere is this more obvious than in our treatment of our public officials (elected and appointed).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To purchase this article, complete the <a
