MACC cannot take action against MPs or members of the administration who fail to declare their assets as the law does not provide for this, an officer says.
Its deputy chief commissioner Shamshun Baharin Mohd Jamil said MACC was merely acting as a repository of the asset declaration information, which is stored in the agency’s data system. “What MACC is using now is the code of ethics at the parliamentary level where they declare assets to the Dewan Rakyat Speaker,” he said in an interview with Bernama at the MACC headquarters here.He said the forms would go through several submission processes, including to the Dewan Rakyat Speaker, Prime Minister’s Office, Governance, Integrity and Anti-Corruption Centre before copies of the declaration were handed to MACC for safekeeping.
“So far, MACC does not have an online system for them to declare their assets, but if there is a new law, it might be implemented,” he said.
