Parliament committee calls for stronger effort against ethical breaches in public service

# The Department of Public Service and Administration and its entities have been urged to intensify efforts to build a professional, ethical, and accountable public service. Parliament’s portfolio committee on Public Service and Administration has adopted the Budgetary Review and Recommendations Reports for 2024/2025. In the report, the committee stated that despite the significant policy and legislative reforms introduced in recent years, unethical conduct and corruption continue to weaken public confidence in state institutions. The committee says professionalising the public service is a central pillar of building an ethical state.
