It has the most relation with the Morality and Moral Courage which I have been noted from a book of quotations over thirty years ago as the following :
Moral Courage ; It is that characterises the highest order of Manhood and Womanhood ....the courage to seek and to speak the truth , the courage to be just ; the courage to be honest ; the corrage to resist temptation ; the courage to do one's duty . If Men and Women do not possess this virtue , they have no security whatever for the preservation of any other . ..... ( Samuel Smiles ) . God bless with you !
The UK is contributing through the OECD Working Group on Bribery International Business Transactions, the UN Convention Against Corruption and the G20 anti-corruption working group to increasing global awareness, enforcement and investigation of foreign bribery. This has recently resulted in both China and Russia criminalising foreign bribery and in improved enforcement by Australia and Canada, bringing their first and second foreign bribery prosecutions respectively
UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) provides country-specific guidance on overseas bribery and corruption issues. UK overseas posts are regularly instructed to report allegations of UK involvement in foreign bribery and to provide advice and assistance to UK companies on managing the risks of corruption. BIS work with both UKTI and FCO to provide practical training on these instructions, including an on-line toolkit and regular briefings to outgoing Commercial Officers and Political Officers.
We promote leading United Nations and OECD good practice for avoiding involvement in overseas corruption, as part of wider corporate responsibility standards. We also promote anti-corruption tools from the International Chamber of Commerce, Transparency International and sector-specific initiatives on codes of conduct and transparent procurement. Please use the right-hand panel related links for more information on sector initiatives.
Transparency International UK (TI-UK) provides independent, impartial training and advice based on extensive knowledge of good practice in the anti-corruption field. You can access their e-learning modules from the right-hand panel related link
