As viewers are aware, these are two of good governance demands which the Prime Minister agreed to put in place when the teachers were on their 11-day strike, and tomorrow, the Government makes good on the commitments.

The Senate will hear a motion to authorize the Accession of Belize to the United Nations Convention against Corruption. As we told you weeks ago, the Prime Minister committed to expediting the process of instituting the UNCAC in Belize. Once the Senate motion passes the Prime Minister will sign the instrument of Accession on December 9, to coincide with the observance of the United Nations International Anti-Corruption Day.

On Wednesday, the Senate is also expected to appoint the members of the Integrity Commission. Those members comprise Chairperson Marilyn Williams, Armead Gabourel, Lisbeth Delgado, Wilmot Simmons. They are all appointed by the Government along with Nestor Vasquez, who will be the Chartered Accountant for the Integrity Commission. As viewers are aware, the Government's insistence on why the Integrity Commission was dormant is because there was no chartered accountant who was prepared to serve and take on the designation of a political exposed person. Well, Vasquez has stepped forward.
