Ten public servants are facing scrutiny after being cited by the Integrity Commission (IC) for breaches of the Integrity Commission Act, with eight set to be charged and two cases referred to the director of public prosecutions (DPP) for a ruling.
The IC reports, which were tabled in the House of Representatives on Tuesday, detail multiple instances of failure to submit mandatory statutory declarations for the year ending December 31, 2023.
Among those rcommended for charges are three former employees of the Betting, Gaming and Lotteries Commission. They are Daniel Jumpp, an accounting clerk/cashier, and investigators Nickesha Scott and Phillip Anderson. The IC found that all three failed, without reasonable cause, to file their statutory declarations for 2023, contrary to law, and determined that charges should be laid against them.
Meanwhile, the IC has referred two other matters to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions. The cases involve Tamica Afflick and Sacheaner Fuller, both securities analysts employed to the Financial Services Commission. Afflick was cited for failing to file her statutory declaration for 2023, while Fuller was cited for failing to submit declarations for the years 2022, 2023 and 2024.
The Integrity Commission Act requires designated public officials to file annual statutory declarations as part of Jamaica’s anti-corruption framework. Failure to do so, without reasonable cause, constitutes an offence under the law.
