2) Further strengthen systems in the adherence to public policy.
3)The passage of the Bill paves the way to establish an Integrity Commission which would assist in achieving Government's objectives to promote good governance, to enhance ethical conduct of public officers, and to strengthen the prevention and detection of corrupt acts by persons in public life.
