ICAC Regional Offices' latest service arrangements
**************************************************
In view of the latest epidemic situation of COVID-19, the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) today (February 28) announced that starting from tomorrow (March 1), ICAC Regional Offices will open from 9am to 1pm; and from 2pm to 6pm, Monday to Friday, to receive corruption complaints and enquiries from the public. The temporary adjustment is to allow a flexible deployment of staff to support the anti-epidemic work.
The ICAC's Report Centre and the report corruption hotline (2526 6366) will continue to operate round-the-clock to receive corruption complaints and enquiries. Other enquiry hotlines, including the Corruption Prevention Advisory Service hotline (2526 6363) and the Business Ethics Development Centre hotline (2826 3288) will also maintain their normal operation.
Since the fifth wave of the epidemic, the ICAC has mobilised an average of more than 150 staff each day to support the anti-epidemic work, including assisting in issuing quarantine orders and supporting the Government's relevant enquiry hotlines. The ICAC will closely monitor the development of the epidemic and the Commission stands ready to deploy more manpower to assist when necessary.
