TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has established a transition team to review the revisions of KPK Law, which was passed by the House of Representatives (DPR) on Tuesday, September 18.
“To optimize the duty, the leaders have formed a technical team,” said the commission spokesman Febri Diansyah, Wednesday, September 18.
Febri explained the team will be tasked to review article changes noted in the newly-ratified law and to identify consequences of the changes towards the institution, human resources, and task implementation in the prosecution and prevention unit.
“As well as to recommend future actions that are needed to be carried out gradually to commissioners,” Febri added.
He continued that the anti-graft body will resume its chores in preventing and prosecuting corruption practices after the draft bill is passed into law. “The investigation is still running, tasks to prevent grafts as well,” he said
KPK head Agus Rahardjo has also instructed all the employees to continue their jobs. Febri hoped the ratification of KPK Law will not cause the public losing their spirit in tackling corruption.
“So we have to maintain our commitment to continue our efforts in eradicating corruption,” he stressed.
