The Parliamentary Integrity Commission revealed today, Friday, its solutions for managing corruption files in state institutions.
Member of the Committee, Deputy Jawad al-Saadi, said, “The volume of corruption files is greater than the capacity of the Integrity Committee, with waste of public money, and the exploitation of crises by entering ISIS gangs and the Corona pandemic.”
He explained that “we need a specialized angel of consultants and legal persons to follow up on these files,” noting that “the Integrity Committee submitted several requests to recruit employees from outside the council to seek their expertise, but previous budgets prevented this.”
For his part, member of the Parliamentary Legal Committee, Hussein Al-Oqabi, told the Iraqi News Agency, “Corruption in the state has two aspects. The first is the political will of the ruling powers, the extent of their seriousness in fighting corruption, and the other side of the government’s system and its capacity with legal loopholes and inefficient human resources to manage corruption files ”
Al-Oqabi added that “the Integrity Committee has more than two thousand employees who were appointed by illegitimate methods, without production, which caused the committee’s inability, in addition to the absence of the legal contracting law, especially as it opens the door to exceptions that have a lot of corruption.”
He continued that “the Office of Legal Oversight and the competent to investigate corruption files has no basis for administrative investigation or judicial powers to investigate,” stressing that “administrative control is compatible with the work of the executive branch, especially as it is better than the control of the House of Representatives.”
