redundant supervision
or: principle of redundant supervision, but that is wordier than it needs to be, in my view.
The concept is that no supervisory function rests entirely with one person, thus lessening the chances of corruption.

Comment: "thank you all for your input. Dual control is also what I've found on LEO, but I think that redundant supervision expresses the idea very well"

increased transparency
or alternatively:
implementing the principle that more eyes see more
Found this:
In the open source movement, there is a principle that the more eyes observing what is being done, the better the chance of finding the problems and errors. Similarly, in 1825, James Mill, the father of the well known philosopher and economist John Stuart Mill, wrote an article about how to prevent corruption in government. The article was titled "Liberty of the Press". (refer to: "The Computer as a Democratizer") He wrote about the challenge for government to work for the benefit of the people as opposed to working for the self interest of those in government. Critical to the problem was whether or not there were many eyes watching what the officials in government were doing. "There can be no adequate check without freedom of the press," he wrote. Considering similar problems, Thomas Paine wrote that people must be able to freely exchange ideas and knowledge in order to be able to determine what is good government. How do these political theorists' ideas contribute to the problem of creating an appropriate management structure for the Internet's infrastructure?

dual control/multiple control
It's normally Vier-Augen-Prinzip in German, which is "dual control" in English. So I suppose Mehr-Augen-Prinzip would have to be "multiple control", though I don't suppose there would be more than three control instances.
