The Public Sector Anti-Corruption Commission (PACC) will meet graft-fighting agencies this week to organise nationwide inspections of the rice subsidy payments to farmers.
Prayong Preeyajit, the PACC secretary-general, said the meeting will delegate inspection tasks among officials of the PACC, the Office of the Auditor-General, the National Anti-Corruption Commission and the Department of Special Investigation.
He said the Bank for Agriculture and Agricultural Co-operatives has sent the names of farmers who registered to receive the state subsidy to the PACC's national anti-corruption centre.
The inspectors will check if the recipients who collected the payments were entitled to them.
