The British High Commission has signed a $J19.5 million agreement with the National Integrity Action (NIA) to support an anti-bribery campaign in Jamaica.

The United Kingdom is providing the funds to the NIA to help raise public awareness about the need for anti-bribery legislation that promotes integrity in both the public and private sectors.

It also seeks to lay the groundwork for more extensive anti-corruption work and governance research across the Caribbean.

The signing comes as the world observes International Anti-Corruption Day today.
