LIBERIA: Anti-Corruption Commission publishes First Listing of Exiting Government Officials

Section 5.2 (0) of the amended and restated LACC Act of 2022 enshrines the responsibility of the LACC in executing Liberia’s Asset Declaration and Verification Regime.
According to a release issued recently, thirty-eight officials in the Executive are non-compliant while three hundred officials are compliant.
The LACC has threatened to withhold compensation, including salaries and other bonuses from those who are non-compliant.
According to the LACC, non-compliant government officials risk refusal or denial of government services, such as business registration, tax clearance, passport renewal, and national identification card renewal, among others.
