Commissioner Austin Cullen has not heard any explicit admission or allegation of corruption from officials who have testified. However, Cullen has heard testimony that shows regulatory failures and ineffective policy and law enforcement, as a result of alleged wilful ignorance, miscommunication and slow-moving bureaucratic responses. Cullen is expected to draw his own conclusions and determine facts in his final report sometime this year. His mandate is to determine “the extent, growth, evolution and methods of money laundering” in six sectors of the economy, including gambling. Cullen is to determine “the acts or omissions of regulatory authorities or individuals” and “the scope and effectiveness” of their powers, including “barriers to effective law enforcement” regarding money laundering in B.C. One barrier could be corruption, however he may define it.
