The Advisory Council on the establishment of the Independent Authority against Corruption held its first meeting on Tuesday, with a view to the immediate commencement of the tasks assigned to it by law.
In a statement, the Advisory Council further states that it intends to proceed as soon as possible to draw up a list of candidates for appointment to the Independent Anti-Corruption Authority, which will include names for both the Transparency Commissioner and the members of the Authority.
Note that the said list will include persons who are qualified and meet the requirements set out in Article 5 (1) of the Law, i.e. persons of recognised standing and of the highest moral character and who are capable of contributing to the fulfilment of the Authority's mission.
