Damascus, SANA-Prime Minister Dr. Wael al-Halqi said the government is interested in vitalizing the role of supervision institutions and keeping a close watch on corruption issues to preserve public funds.
The Premier’s comments came during his meeting Thursday with Najm-Eddin Nemer, who was sworn in as the Supervision and Inspection Central Committee assistance chairman.
The current conditions have spawned new forms of corruption, which requires doubled efforts for clamping down on the corrupt within a set timeframe, al-Halqi said during the meeting.
With the reconstruction stage now set in motion, al-Halqi cited a need for an “administrative and ethical ground” set on solid bases for achieving comprehensive and sustainable development that can be done, according to PM, by uprooting administrative and financial corruption in the public and private sectors.
While emphasizing the importance of “preemptive supervision” to preclude forms of corruption materializing, al-Halqi stressed the significance of teamwork within the Supervision and Inspection Central Committee for preventing embezzlement, calling for picking competent cadres capable of carrying out inspection in an optimal way.
Al-Halqi, meanwhile, demanded that all files be settled and appropriate decisions be taken away from favoritism and personal considerations in an atmosphere of social justice transparency for boosting the citizens’ trust in the public sector.
