Integrity’ refers to the application of values, principles and norms in the daily operations of public sector organizations. Governments are under growing pressure from the public to use information, resources and authority for intended purposes. A competent and impartial public administration is a necessary condition for the appropriate performance of its duties; the public must have confidence in the authorities’ discharge of their duties, in accordance with the rule of law and the democratic frameworks. An ideal integrity policy would focus on the prevention of damage to integrity in a manner that offers scope for the individual responsibilities and requires civil servants to arrive at carefully considered decisions on specific integrity issues within society and administration.
