[size=52]Al-Sudani meets with the Integrity Commission and directs a rapid response to corruption cases[/size]

[size=45]Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani directed to quickly respond to corruption case reports and implement legal judicial decisions within 24 hours, while stressing that some reports aim to disrupt and confuse the work of the Integrity Commission and delay projects.[/size]
[size=45]The Prime Minister's media office said in a statement that "Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani visited the headquarters of the Federal Integrity Commission," and during his chairmanship of a meeting, he pointed out "what the Integrity Commission represents as a basic tool in implementing the government program and what relates to the priority of combating corruption," appreciating the distinguished efforts of the Commission's employees, which instilled hope among the general public that there is a real will to combat financial and administrative corruption.[/size]
[size=45]The Prime Minister addressed the issue of the theft of tax deposits, which represents a black spot in the history of the state due to the nature and size of the stolen funds, under official cover, in collusion with state employees. Half of this money was smuggled out of the country, stressing the continuation of efforts to recover it, according to the statement.[/size]
[size=45]He pointed out that the work of the Commission is clearly different from the previous stage, stressing the need to continue with the same professional path in work, especially since public opinion was concerned about the selectivity in combating corruption and the political nature in opening files, as happened in the Committee of Diwani Order 29, which no longer exists, as work is being carried out today in accordance with the law and in cooperation with the executive and judicial authorities.[/size]
[size=45]Al-Sudani stressed the need to quickly address any shortcomings that appear from the integrity employees, and rejected any employee exploiting his position, especially if he is charged with monitoring and protecting integrity, stressing that he communicates daily with the Integrity Commission and its head for follow-up and guidance.[/size]
[size=45]The Prime Minister directed all officers and commanders to submit a statement of their financial assets, and directed all departments to continue to set and update the standards for dealing with bribery by surveying citizens’ opinions. He also directed to submit a periodic position on the ministries’ procedures in the matter of integrity, and to respond quickly to the subject of the reports that are received.[/size]
[size=45]He pointed out that "special committees were formed to investigate special grades and hold senior employees accountable, and they began their work to include any official if it is proven that there has been harm to public funds."[/size]
[size=45]He also pointed out that “there was a directive to form investigation committees in ministries, governorates, and entities not affiliated with a ministry, because there is a slowness that has affected the processing of reports and lawsuits.”[/size]
