Government Declares IMF Corruption Report a Charge Sheet, Action Plan by Dec 31

The government of Pakistan has declared the IMF Governance and Corruption Diagnostic (GCD) report as a charge sheet and announced that a comprehensive action plan will be prepared by December 31, 2025, to implement its recommendations.

Separate meetings of the Senate and National Assembly Standing Committees on Finance were held at Parliament House on Wednesday, where a detailed review of the IMF report was conducted. Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb briefed the committees on 15 major recommendations, which cover key sectors including governance, taxation, corruption, regulatory affairs, and rule of law.

The government said that the action plan will include short, medium, and long-term measures, spanning 6 months, 18 months, and 36 months, to ensure implementation of all recommendations.

Among the announced initiatives, the government plans to make assets of public officials available online by next year to enhance transparency and accountability.

Finance Minister Aurangzeb emphasized the urgency of implementing reforms and assured parliamentary committees that a detailed roadmap would be submitted before the December 31 deadline.

This move reflects Pakistan’s commitment to tackling corruption and improving governance as part of broader structural reforms outlined in the IMF’s assessment.
