The creation of an integrity organization in Sudan is an important step in fighting corruption and improving transparency and responsibility, and it is a requirement that has been repeated in Sudanese experiences, in particular after revolutions and political transfers.
The establishment of authority can be imagined according to several basic axes:
1. The legal framework

4. Powers
• Investigate suspicions of corruption without the need for the prior authorization of any executive body.
• Referring to affairs to the competent courts.
• Request to raise immunity for any suspicious employee.
