President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih has on Tuesday sent the names of all interested candidates who applied for three National Integrity Commission (NIC) membership vacancies, for the Parliament’s consideration.
The President’s Office had earlier announced for applications to fill three vacant posts at the NIC, following the resignation of three of the commission’s members, under Article 11 of the National Integrity Commission Act (Act number: 27/2015).
The President’s Office said it will accept applications from 16 -18 August, from 09:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
It also said Application forms are available from the President's Office reception during official hours.
Yesterday, President Solih dismissed NIC President Ahmed Sulaiman after the parliament voted to remove him from the post on Monday. The vote was passed with the approval from all 58 MPs that participated in yesterday's session.
Sulaiman took over the NIC on the 1st of March 2018. He had also fulfilled the post of Elections Commissioner.
The National Integrity Commission is an independent legal entity possessing powers to undertake its mandate in its own capacity
Its main objective is to investigate unlawful acts of Law Enforcement Agencies and employees of such agencies and to investigate where the commission of such an act is suspected or if any party submits a complaint that such an act has or is being committed.
