Speakers

Transcript

1 Ms He Ting Ru asked the Prime Minister in each of the last five years (a) whether the Government has records of how many Singapore companies have been (i) investigated and (ii) found guilty of offences under foreign legislation such as the United Kingdom’s Bribery Act or other equivalents; and (b) if so, what is the breakdown of such figures.

2 Ms Hazel Poa asked the Prime Minister whether the decision by CPIB to issue stern warnings to the former staff of Keppel Offshore & Marine Limited involved in bribe payments instead of prosecuting them was a unanimous one and whether there were dissenting views within CPIB; and (b) if so, what are those views.

3 Ms Hazel Poa asked the Prime Minister whether examples of other similar cases of corruption where only warnings were issued can be provided for comparison.
