Government submits integrity plan to Parliament
- January 27, 2015 8:22 AM
PHILIPSBURG--Government submitted a plan of approach to Parliament on Monday for the implementation of recommendations from the three integrity reports.
Parliament instructed government in a unanimously passed motion on October 22, 2014, to come up with a plan to address the General Audit Chamber Report, the Wit-Samson Report and the PricewaterhouseCoopers Report on integrity in government.
The Council of Ministers approved a draft ordinance to establish an Integrity Chamber for St. Maarten and has nominated a "quartermaster" by national resolution. The quartermaster will be charged with the implementation of the ordinance. The ordinance is now with the Advisory Council for review.
The ordinance seeks to establish an institution based on Article 98 of the Constitution to investigate breaches of integrity and will function as an advisory body to government.
Prime Minister Marcel Gumbs said in a press statement government is "confident" these steps put St. Maarten on "a genuine trajectory, grounded in law, to embrace and ensure integrity in governing."
