Which act outlines the potential offences related to bribery?

The Bribery Act 2010 specifically outlines potential offences related to bribery. This legislation was introduced to tackle corruption in both public and private sectors. It sets clear definitions of what constitutes bribery, including offering, promising, or giving a bribe, as well as requesting, agreeing to receive, or accepting a bribe. The Act encompasses a range of activities related to bribery, including bribery of foreign public officials and commercial bribery.

In contrast, the Fraud Act 2006 primarily addresses fraud-related offences and does not focus specifically on bribery. The Criminal Finances Act 2017 deals with matters such as tax evasion and the recovery of criminal assets, rather than bribery itself. Similarly, the Money Laundering Regulations 2017 focus on preventing money laundering and managing the risks associated with financial crime, without directly addressing bribery offences. Therefore, the Bribery Act 2010 is uniquely positioned as the legislative framework that specifically targets and outlines the offences related to bribery.
