The Bribery Act 2010 aims to encourage businesses to adopt anti-bribery practices, by modernising the law on bribery.
It will be a criminal offence to give, promise or offer a bribe and to request, agree to receive or accept a bribe. The legislation increases the maximum penalty for bribery from seven to 10 years
