Create a Public Accountability Act for Mismanaged Public Projects

Background

Introduce a "Public Accountability Act" to ensure politicians and public executives responsible for catastrophic public spending failures face personal consequences. With legal duty of care for public funds, personal financial penalties or mandatory voluntary service and clawback contract clauses.

Additional details

In any other job, if lots of money was lost, we would be fired. Ordinary people face consequences so should they. This is about fairness, responsibility and protecting the public purse.
