PETALING JAYA: The G25 group of former top civil servants today called for the formation of a Parliamentary Select Committee on Corruption and Integrity to ensure the 2021 budget is properly spent.

Welcoming the passing of the budget at the policy stage, G25 said the fact that the government was willing to accommodate the demands of the opposition showed the maturity of the Cabinet ministers.

“While the big expenditure is justified, the government must also demonstrate to Parliament that all the ministries and departments will spend their allocations productively to benefit the target groups without the wastage and leakages that seem to become a regular occurrence especially in recent years, as pointed out in the auditor-general’s reports to the Public Accounts Committee.

“These weaknesses are often associated with cronyism, favouritism and corruption. As such, they must not be allowed to happen again and again so that we can redeem our past reputation as one of the best managed economies among the fast-developing countries.
