The Government has drafted the Leadership Code Amendment Bill, which among other things provides for the creation of a Leadership Code Tribunal to handle corruption cases arising out of breach of the Leadership Code.

The Bill seeks to criminalise failure to submit correct information as opposed to a breach of the code that is provided for now.

The Bill seeks to give the Inspector General of Government (IGG) discretionary powers to decline an application to access the contents of a wealth declaration in the interest of the security of the state or the right to privacy.

The Bill also provides for all gifts and donations of whatever kind or value, given to a leader on any public occasion, to be treated as gifts or donations to the Government.
