PPP to implement Integrity Commission

PPPGeorgetown: The People’s Progressive Party will be implementing an integrity and discipline commission to ensure that members of the party who serve in public offices maintain the highest level of integrity in the performance of their duties while enacting their duties according to protocol.
“The decision to establish the commission flows from the last congress and the new central committee deliberations where it was affirmed that additional steps be taken to establish a mechanism to address allegations of misconduct and reinforce party discipline at all levels,” general secretary of the PPP Clement Rohee said.

The commission is made up of five “long standing executive members” but their names were not disclosed.

The Commission will investigate allegations in relation to theft, bribery and forgery. The Commission is also mandated to investigate misconduct by party members, who engage in activities unbecoming of a good member, including defamation and sexual harassment.
