KUALA LUMPUR: The government is open to considering a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) into the Retirement Fund Incorporated (KWAP) and the Employees Provident Fund (EPF) if credible information or evidence warrants a comprehensive and independent investigation.
Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Law and Institutional Reform) Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said said issues involving the management of public funds, including governance and investment decisions, would continue to be examined based on facts and evidence through appropriate oversight mechanisms.
"Should further scrutiny establish a clear need and public interest in a special investigation, the proposal to establish an RCI may be considered accordingly," she said in a written parliamentary reply.
