Answer: What is Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau mean?

The Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (abbreviation: CPIB) is a government agency in Singapore under the Prime Minister's Office. The CPIB has the mandate to investigate into any acts or forms of corruption in the public and private sectors in Singapore, and in the course of doing so, any other offences under any written law.

The CPIB was established by in 1952 and placed under the purview of the Attorney-General at the time. Having also been under the Ministry of Home Affairs in its earlier years, the Bureau has remained under the purview of the Prime Minister's Office since 1969. The CPIB operates with functional independence, and is headed by a director who reports directly to the Prime Minister.

The CPIB may also, in the course of its investigations, come across cases which reveal corruption-prone areas or loopholes in procedures in government departments. Based on its findings, CPIB may review the department concerned and recommend changes in their procedures. In addition to its primary function of investigating corruption offences, the CPIB also undertakes public education and community outreach efforts relating to anti-corruption.
