The programme was organised in line with the Government’s initiative to build a clean, transparent and corruption-free public service.
Building on this initiative, instructions have now been issued to establish Internal Affairs Units in an additional 250 state institutions as part of the second phase.
He further emphasised that both public officials and political authorities must possess a clear understanding of public expectations and public sentiment.
The establishment of Internal Affairs Units forms a central component of this effort, with the aim of improving internal oversight, transparency and institutional accountability.
Furthermore, he highlighted that Internal Affairs Units can be viewed both as a mechanism for fostering a culture of integrity within the public service and as a platform that enables the public to raise concerns regarding the conduct of public officials, thereby strengthening accountability and public trust.
