Law to hold CEOs liable for graft by staff in the works


PUTRAJAYA: A proposed legal amendment to hold chief executive officers and companies liable for corruption activities involving their employees is being pushed for an early tabling in Parliament this year.

This means that corporate entities would be obliged to put in place an effective anti-graft policy or system within their companies once the proposal becomes law, said Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Paul Low Seng Kuan.
