Sierra Leone Anti-corruption Commission
The Sierra Leone Anti-corruption Commission (ACC-SL) was established by the Anti-Corruption Act passed by the Sierra Leone Parliament in 2000.〔http://news.sl/drwebsite/publish/article_20051979.shtml〕 It supersedes the 1960 Prevention of Corruption Act.
==Formation==
The ACC was established following the 1990s civil war to investigate rampant corruption in public agencies, then beginning to receive renewed foreign investment. The 2000 Anti-Corruption Act established the ACC as an independent commission to investigate government corruption. The ACC was partially funded and staffed by foreign (mostly British) experts, although in 2007 the British government withdrew support claiming the ACC were not given broad enough powers.〔(SL Crime-buster wants clout ). Reuters/News24 (SA) 08/12/2007〕
Its first major action was to order the arrest of Sierra Leone's Minister of Transport and Communications Momoh Pujeh and his wife for involvement in the illegal diamond trade which funded much of the Civil War.〔(Sierra Leone minister arrested ). BBC. 1 November 2001〕 Corruption is seen as a generalised problem of huge proportions in Sierra Leone, and a contributing factor to the outbreak and continuation of the bloody civil war which destroyed the nation.〔(Sierra Leone still blighted by war ). Joseph Winter, BBC. 17 October 2005.〕 As late as 2007, the government itself admitted that entire ministries failed to produce any work, as their entire budgets were being diverted through corruption.〔(S Leone 'riddled with corruption' ). Mark Doyle, BBC. 14 November 2007.〕 A BBC journalist interviewed the Foreign Minister in 2007 and found that her office toilets were never connected to water sources as construction contractors failed to carry out jobs for which they were paid.〔(Can S Leone flush away corruption ). Mark Doyle, BBC. 23 January 2009.〕
The ACC has been accused of lacking political will to tackle the nation's endemic public corruption.〔( SIERRA LEONE: Corruption may be illegal, but no one’s giving it up yet ). Liliane Bitong Ambassa/IRIN. 16 December 2005 (IRIN)〕 One foreign commentator accused the pre-2004 ACC in a World Bank study of being a "Phoney" reform organisation, created to "appease foreign donors" but not effectively fight government corruption.〔pp. 270-271.
