2013-11-29
The ICAC has over the years run 33 Chief Investigators’ Command Courses (CICCs) to provide leadership and management training to about 700 graft-busters and law enforcers from around the world.
Speaking at the closing ceremony of the 2013 CICC today (Friday), ICAC Commissioner Simon Peh Yun-lu said the course was designed to broaden participants’ horizons and help them become more effective leaders and managers.
To meet the challenges in combating corruption and related crimes, Mr Peh encouraged the course participants, as seasoned officers in law enforcement, to embrace changes, adopt best practice policies and provide the best service to the communities they se rved.
Since the 1970s, a total of about 700 participants have benefited from the CICCs. Among them, over 180 were from overseas law enforcement agencies and international organisations, over 100 from other local law enforcement agencies and organisations, and around 50 from Mainland and Macao anti-corruption authorities.
This year’s CICC attracted 33 participants from Asia, Australia, Europe and North America, including 15 Chief Investigators from the ICAC.
Overseas agencies included the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service, the Australian Federal Police, the Anti-Corruption Commission of Bhutan, the Corrupt Practice Investigation Bureau of Singapore, the Corruption Eradication Commission of the Republic of Indonesia, the New York Department of Investigation, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission, the Singapore Police Force and the French National Police.
Local agencies included the Correctional Services Department, the Customs and Excise Department, the Fire Services Department, the Hong Kong Police Force and the Immigration Department. There were also participants from the Supreme People’s Procuratorate, the People’s Procuratorates of Guangdong Province and Tianjin and the Macao Commission Against Corruption.
The four-week course featured a three-day law enforcement leadership training by visiting speaker Mr Phil Shepherd, the Director of Education Services from Australian Institute of Police Management and a five-day comparative studies visit to Tianjin on th e Mainland.
Speakers of the course included Mr Michael Sze Cho-cheung, Chairman of the Operations Review Committee; Mr Lam Woon-kwong, Convenor of Non-official Members of the Executive Council; Mrs Regina Ip Lau Suk-yee, Non-official Member of the Executive Council; Mr Dick Lee Ming-kwai, former Commissioner of Police; Mr T Brian Stevenson, Chairman of the Hong Kong Jockey Club; and Dr Allan Zeman, Chairman of Ocean Park Corporation.
