SIICAC Commences Corruption Risk Assessment and Management (CRAM) Surveys with Key Ministries
The Solomon Islands Independent Commission Against Corruption (SIICAC) has successfully conducted two Corruption Risk Assessment and Management (CRAM) surveys this week with the Ministry of Forestry and Research (MoFR) and the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources (MFMR). These initial engagements mark the beginning of a broader CRAM initiative, which will continue into next year with other key government ministries.
The CRAM surveys are grounded in the legal and policy frameworks provided by the Anti-Corruption Act 2018 and the National Anti-Corruption Strategy (NACS) 2024–2027. They are designed to generate baseline data that will enable SIICAC to work collaboratively with ministries to identify areas vulnerable to corruption, strengthen internal controls, and promote a culture of integrity and accountability across public institutions.
The findings will also support the development of targeted strategies to deter corrupt practices and address behavioural risks among public officials. This initiative represents an important step toward building long-term, effective partnerships between SIICAC and public bodies in the fight against corruption.
SIICAC is committed to enhancing transparency and public engagement. We will be launching our official website before the end of the year to improve access to our services and resources.
