Members of Parliament (MPs) have been reminded to declare their financial interests by the 14 October deadline.
MPs are required to disclose several types of registrable interests, including shares and other financial stakes in companies.
The National Assembly held a hybrid plenary sitting on Wednesday, during which ministers from the security cluster responded to MPs’ queries in a question-and-answer session.Before the session could commence, Parliament’s chairperson of chairpersons Cedric Frolick told MPs that they needed to declare their interests in terms of the Code of Ethical Conduct and Disclosure of Financial Interests.
MPs are required to make declarations to ensure transparency and address potential conflicts of interest between their personal or business interests and their roles as public representatives.While most of this information is publicly accessible, the confidential section of the register includes specific details about the monetary value of MPs’ interests and comprehensive information about their spouses, dependent children and permanent companions.
