Since 2011 Fraud Defence has referred 44 reported suspicions/allegations of corruption/bribery to law enforcement authorities.

The Ministry of Defence takes allegations of Fraud, Theft, Corruption and Bribery seriously and works hard to detect and deter it. There are robust processes in place to raise awareness of the need for vigilance and we actively encourage individuals to report Fraud, Theft, Corruption and Bribery.
