Redlands Mayor Jocelyn Mitchell demands reform after anonymous complaints triggered costly, flawed investigations despite her exoneration.
Redlands Mayor Jocelyn Mitchell is calling for reforms to Queensland’s Office of the Independent Assessor after six complaints—five anonymous—led to three investigations costing over $45,000.
She criticized the system’s vulnerability to abuse, citing anonymous complaints and councillors voting on cases involving themselves without verified identities.
Despite independent findings clearing her of misconduct, the council reprimanded her, prompting concerns about political use and lack of accountability.
Redlands had the most councillor conduct complaints in Queensland during 2024–25, with 114 out of 1,008 statewide cases.
The Queensland government has pledged to reform the OIA but has not set a timeline.
