Autor Peter Tickner
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 sep 2015
Fraud, corruption and bribery in and around public services have become an increasing concern in recent years. The reported level of fraud and corruption affecting the public sector has remained unacceptably high despite numerous national and international initiatives intended to tackle these crimes and their consequences. Fraud and Corruption in Public Services is a definitive, practical guide to the diverse risks that arise in central and local government. There is guidance on civil and criminal law around fraud, bribery and corruption as well as the national and international governmental measures and initiatives for countering this form of criminality. Most importantly of all, the book offers advice, practical examples and strategies for preventing and combating fraud, bribery and corruption. The text is readable, well-informed and intensely practical; illustrated throughout with real-life examples from the author's 40 year career.

Descriere

Public sector fraud seems on the increase in all forms and countries. Part of this may be the impact of technology and the increased sophistication of organized crime; part of it may be a reflection of the increased transparency in the media. Fraud and Corruption in Public Services is a definitive, practical guide to the diverse sources of risk. There is a guidance on civil and criminal law as well as the national and international governmental measures and initiatives for countering this form of criminality. Most importantly of all, the book offers advice, examples and strategy both for preventing and combating fraud and corruption. The text is readable, well-informed and intensely practical; illustrated throughout with examples from the author's thirty year career.
