A TRANSPORT Department employee is facing corruption charges for allegedly issuing fake WA drivers' licences to members of the Club Deroes outlaw bikie gang.
The Kalgoorlie woman was charged by the major fraud squad this month after an 18-month investigation into the supply of duplicate licences.
Police will allege the 30-year-old supplied fake licences to two members and an associate of the Club Deroes gang while working at the Department of Transport's Kalgoorlie office in 2006.
Detectives launched an investigation last year after facial recognition technology detected the duplicate IDs.
It's understood the woman was known to the trio.
Major fraud squad detective Sen-Sgt Dom Blackshaw confirmed police had laid charges against the woman and said inquiries would continue into the recipients of the licences.
It is the first time anyone has been charged with corruption since technology was introduced to combat identity fraud in WA's licensing system.
"There were some discrepancies found, where people had duplicate licences and where a photograph appeared more than once under different details," Sen-Sgt Blackshaw said.
"This matter relates to three people who each had two licences one in their real name and one in their false name."
Police worked with the Corruption and Crime Commission throughout the investigation.
It's believed details from New Zealand licences were used to obtain the fake IDs.
The State Government introduced facial recognition technology after a sweep of WA's licensing system uncovered hundreds of duplicate IDs.
Police carried out 26 criminal investigations on the back of information provided by the DoT. Of those, seven people have been charged with fraud or attempting to pervert the course of justice.
Among them were taxi and limousine drivers, prosecuted for holding multiple licences to avoid paying traffic fines.
The woman was charged with three counts of corruption and has been summonsed to appear in the Kalgoorlie Magistrates' Court on Thursday.
