The final legislation incorporates important judicial safeguards for rights that were absent from the initial draft. The office will have broad powers to investigate suspected misappropriation or unauthorized handling of public assets and, where appropriate, initiate civil asset recovery proceedings or refer matters for criminal investigation. In particular, there was no judicial oversight of measures restricting individual rights and no independent mechanism to review complaints concerning the office’s activities. Measures restricting individual rights will now be subject to judicial oversight, and the law establishes an internal human rights officer. Due process, including judicial oversight and independent review, is an essential safeguard against arbitrary interference with rights.
