In a significant move to address financial constraints, Justice and Police Minister Harish Monorath has proposed that the Anti-Corruption Commission temporarily relocate to the same building housing the Constitutional Court (Chof). The commission is currently required to vacate its premises on Henck Arronstraat due to the ministry’s inability to meet rental obligations. The Chof is situated at the intersection of Watermolen and Lim A Postraat. Monorath emphasized that this relocation is a necessary interim measure, saving the ministry approximately $4,000 per month in rental costs. He clarified that the move is not intended to displace the Chof, referencing President Jennifer Simons’ recent mention of the court in her annual address. The appointment and installation of the Chof’s chairperson and members remain pending. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Justice and Police has initiated renovations of several buildings, including its headquarters and the former Public Prosecutor’s Office. Monorath reiterated that the decision is purely financial and aims to provide both the Chof and the Anti-Corruption Commission with their own dedicated facilities in the future.
