    "content": "At the outset, I want to thank all the Members who contributed. In a nutshell, the overall objective of this Bill is to extend the fight against corruption to the private sector and, more specifically, by criminalizing bribery in the private sector. There was a lot of focus in our country in terms of the legislation, policy pronouncements and institutions fighting corruption in the public sector. This Bill brings on board the role of the private sector. How do we extend the fight against corruption to the private sector? Secondly, this Bill seeks to provide a specific legislative framework for the private sector to put in place procedures to prevent corruption. This Bill creates a legal obligation for every citizen who becomes aware of an act of bribery to report it to the nearest Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC). This Bill also provides for an effective coordination and accountability framework in the prevention, investigation and prosecution of acts of bribery. I beg to move."
