The State will drop the requirement for people seeking employment in governments and parastatals to get clearance from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) ahead of applying for the jobs if MPs approve changes to the law.

The government, through the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendment) Bill, 2022, wants the recruiting agency to seek the integrity report of shortlisted candidates only from the EACC.
