UN General Assembly Special Session on Corruption
Statement of Ireland by Hildegarde Naughton TD, Minister of State for Justice
Ladies, Gentlemen, and distinguished guests. I am very pleased to participate in this Special Session of the General Assembly on Challenges and Measures to Prevent and Combat Corruption and Strengthen International Cooperation.
I am honoured to reaffirm Ireland’s commitment to the fight against corruption. Corruption has a detrimental impact on development and economic growth, while reducing the quality of public resources, especially for women and most marginalised groups.
