public official的解释。北美的范文43还是有问题吧。
What is a public official?
  
For conduct to be considered corrupt under the ICAC Act it must involve a New South Wales public official or public authority.

A public official is defined in the ICAC Act as an individual having public official functions or acting in a public official capacity. Public authority employees and individuals who are members of certain boards such as the Board of the State Rail Authority, for example, would be considered public officials. In some circumstances private contractors and consultants are also public officials.

Public officials also include Ministers, other Members of the NSW Parliament, NSW local government councillors, and NSW judges and magistrates.

The ICAC cannot generally examine the conduct of NSW police officers. Since 1997, the Police Integrity Commission has had responsibility for investigating allegations of police corruption. The ICAC retains jurisdiction to investigate corruption by police officers when it also involves other public officials who are not police. The ICAC can also advise and assist the Police Service on corruption prevention and education.

In most cases, the ICAC has no jurisdiction over the federal government or its officers, interstate or foreign matters, or the conduct of private sector companies or individuals except when these may corruptly affect the way NSW public officials carry out their duties. Some examples are:

a private company offers a bribe to a NSW public official involved in a tender process to induce the official to favour their company over others
a private individual threatens a NSW public official not to report breaches of legislation.
