“The Code of Conduct covers essential principles such as pursuing the public interest, legality, transparency, impartiality and equality, integrity, honesty, urbanity, and inter-institutional respect,” said Minister Pereira at the Government Palace, in Dili, on wednesday.

“It also establishes rules regarding gifts and benefits and combating sexual harassment and harassment at work, ensuring integrity and responsibility in the civil service,” he stressed.

By adopting this code of conduct, the IX Constitutional Government is reinforcing its commitment to transparency, ethics, and the responsibility of its members in performing their duties while promoting citizens’ trust in the Rule of Law institutions.
