AMMAN — The Jordanian Integrity and Transparency Coalition “Rasheed” on Wednesday issued a statement expressing its dissatisfaction over the transparency and anti-corruption bill that the Lower House endorsed on Sunday.
The coalition said the law is a “setback” in Jordan’s anti-corruption efforts and would negatively affect the country’s achievements. Rasheed says the bill restricts the authorities of the Anti-Corruption Commission and fails to address shortcomings in previous relevant laws.
