The new Minister of Health refutes any “conflict of interest” between his functions and those of his wife

The brand new Minister of Health denies any form of “conflict of interest” linked to his functions and those of his spouse

The new health minister recently refuted allegations of a suspected “conflict of interest” between his ministerial responsibilities and his wife’s professional activities. This statement is intended to dispel any potential controversy and maintain public confidence in his office.

Since his appointment, rumors have circulated that the Minister of Health could find himself in a delicate situation given the professional links of his spouse. However, at a recent press conference, the minister made it clear that there was no conflict of interest and that his wife was engaged in a field unrelated to her ministerial portfolio.

The Minister also underlined that he himself and his entourage would strictly respect the ethical and legal rules in force to avoid any situation of conflict of interest. He expressed his desire to promote full transparency and ensure the separation between his official duties and the personal interests of his family.

Additionally, the minister said his spouse is fully aware of the need to maintain professional distance and uphold the highest ethical standards. He emphasized that his professional career was independent of his own and that there would be no undue advantage for him or his family in connection with his ministerial duties.

To reinforce his position, the Minister suggested that any concerns or questions related to a possible conflict of interest be brought to the attention of the competent bodies responsible for overseeing ethics and probity in the public service. He affirmed his full cooperation with these bodies in order to prevent any suspicion of favoritism or bias.

These statements by the Minister are intended to allay public concerns and reaffirm his commitment to transparency and integrity. As the conflict of interest debate continues to rage in many areas of public life, the minister hopes his clear stance will help dispel suspicion and build lasting confidence in his ministerial responsibilities.
