OPPOSITION Leader Bill Shorten is willing to talk to the Abbott government about ways to prevent corruption.

Mr Shorten was asked during Monday's federal Labor caucus meeting in Canberra whether he supported a national version of NSW's Independent Commission Against Corruption.

The Labor leader told colleagues he was willing to talk to the government about reforms to improve the performance and standards of MPs.

But he did not elaborate on what form of new checks he supported.

The Australian Greens on Thursday will push for a vote on a bill to put in place a national anti-corruption body.

The National Integrity Commission would have three officers: a national integrity commissioner, a law enforcement integrity commissioner and an independent parliamentary advisor.
