DAO-recognized Name: _@drllau_

Country of Residence & Time Zone: _Australia_, _AWST_

Occupation: _legal engineer_ ([certified](https://github.com/lexDAO/Legal-Engineers)) specialising in IP/IT/ID law

What is your motivation for applying to this working group? (max 3 sentences)  
Within this 3rd season, I aim to:

1. Strengthen the independence of UAC by seeking a mandate for detecting collusion (responsibilities akin to [ICAC](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_Commission_Against_Corruption_(Hong_Kong)));
2. Empower UniSwap delegates to convene boards of inquiry (akin to [NTSB](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Transportation_Safety_Board) airplane crash where [probity concerns](https://gov.uniswap.org/t/temperature-check-activate-uniswap-protocol-governance/22936/127) are raised & resolved;
3. Foster evidentiary [standards](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hague_Evidence_Convention) to support 3rd-party investigative journalism allowing [whistleblowers](https://asic.gov.au/about-asic/asic-investigations-and-enforcement/whistleblowing/whistleblower-rights-and-protections/) to bring attention to any rorts in confidence;

that will foster transparency and bring a _higher degree of accountability_ via self-discipline (not top-down regulation xref video [link](https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxujBxFf1iB99NfDyUAAZVGJ8ZEvZ0J8sA?feature=shared) in image).
