Transparency International Pakistan calls HOPO Act as National Reconciliation Act, and demands for setting up of an Independent Accountability Commission for all parliamentarians, civilian and armed forces officers and judiciary.
Karachi 27 April 2009: The bill of Holder of Public Office(Accountability) Act,2009, to repeal NAB Ordinance 1999 is a vague bill, made only for the elected parliamentarians, excluding civil servants, local government members, and armed services, and is actually National Reconciliation Act, a continuation of NRO. The bill requires major modifications. It begins with wrong notion, as it defines the aim as to repeal the National Accountability Ordinance, 1999 and to enact new law of Accountability. The aim is for establishing an Independent Accountability Commission to eradicate corruption, as has been committed by major political parties PPP, PML(N) and PML(Q), in their election manifesto in 2007.

Pakistan faces Serious Corruption Challenges in the coming years
Press Release
Press Release (11th June 2008)

Transparency International calls on the Government of Pakistan to re-instate the deposed judges who were unconstitutionally dismissed on November 3rd 2007

The Annual Meeting of Transparency International (TI) Asia Pacific chapters, held in Manila, Philippines, calls on the Government of Pakistan to reinstate the deposed judges who were unconstitutionally dismissed on 3 November 2007.

The termination of these judges critically weakens the effective functioning of the judicial sector. The judiciary is a key institution safeguarding the rule of law, accountability of governing institutions and the prevention of corruption.

Promoting judicial integrity is a vital principle contained in the United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC), to which Pakistan is a state party. The problem also exists in many other TI Asia Pacific countries, and failure to respect the safeguards for the independence of judges undermines their integrity.

The Meeting therefore calls on the authorities in Pakistan to respect the constitutional provision for the judiciary to function independently and to reinstate the dismissed judges.
