SFO launches pilot programme to tackle public sector corruption risks
File image. Photo: RNZ / Rebekah Parsons-King A newly launched Anti-Corruption Taskforce pilot programme, led by the Serious Fraud Office (SFO), will be running for the next six months to assess risks across the public sector - including AI-enabled fraud, foreign interference and insider threats. The SFO will be supported by the Police and the Public Service Commission to build a "system-wide" picture of the corruption and fraud risks in the public sector. Between July and September, the taskforce will request six agencies to complete self-assessments and supply data: Inland Revenue, Accident Compensation Corporation, the Department of Corrections, the Ministry of Social Development, Land Information New Zealand and Sport New Zealand. The agencies will also report on the volume of corruption and fraud detected and prevented. By the end of the year, the taskforce will prepare advice to ministers and release a public report about the trends, gaps and recommended actions. SFO chief executive Karen Chang said in a statement tackling public sector fraud was about safeguarding taxpayers' funds and protecting New Zealanders' trust in government. "By bringing frontline agencies and enforcement partners together, this will help build a clearer intelligence picture that can be used to lift system resilience and ensure we stay ahead of emerging threats such as insider threats, foreign interference and AI-enabled fraud." Chang said the pilot would generate a baseline that informed more targeted prevention, better detection and stronger enforcement. She said the agencies were already proactive members of the existing Counter Fraud Centre community, and their willingness to share data showed a strong commitment to integrity. Police Commissioner Richard Chambers said working with agencies across government would allow the taskforce to identify risks early and use the collective enforcement to keep the system strong. Police Minister Mark Mitchell said the public sector accounted for a third of the economy, and the pilot was a "critical step" in protecting and enhancing New Zealand's reputation as an attractive place to invest. "Every dollar of public funding counts, and preventing the unlawful taking of taxpayer money is something we take very seriously," he said. Public Service Minister Judith Collins said the taskforce would help increase transparency and encourage ethical conduct across the public sector. "Fighting corruption is not just about prosecution - it's about leadership, accountability and promoting a culture of integrity."

Union Minister Kishan Reddy writes to Telangana CM on tie-up for renewable energy projects
Hyderabad: Union Minister G Kishan Reddy has written to Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, stating that Central Public Sector Undertakings (CPSUs) under the Ministry of Coal are ready to partner with the state government to implement key renewable energy projects. In his letter on July 16, Kishan Reddy said that PSUs such as Coal India Limited (CIL) and Neyveli Lignite Corporation India Limited (NLCIL) are prepared to collaborate with Telangana on projects including solar and wind power plants, Pumped Storage Projects (PSPs), and battery energy storage systems (BESS), which are expected to attract investments of nearly ₹10,000 crore over the next three years. These projects would play a vital role in reducing carbon emissions, improving air quality, and ensuring sustainable natural resource management, the letter said. They also promise significant socio-economic benefits, such as job creation , skill development, enhanced energy security, affordable power access, inclusive growth, and an improved quality of life, it added. "To bring these projects to fruition, I request that a structured and seamless coordination mechanism be established between the state government and the CPSUs. Needless to say, your active and timely engagement will be instrumental in ensuring the swift and effective implementation of these projects," the union minister further said. Given Telangana's considerable renewable energy potential and the central government's strong commitment to green growth, this collaboration presents an opportunity to accelerate the state's economic development and position it as a key player in India's sustainable energy transition . The developmental synergy between the central and state governments is critical to achieving long-term national priorities such as energy security and climate resilience, while also fostering economic well-being and growth, Kishan Reddy noted.

The Future Of Enterprise Innovation: Unlocking AI, IoT And Edge Computing At Scale
Massimo Peselli is the Senior Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer, Global Enterprise and Public Sector for Verizon Business. The next era of enterprise transformation is unfolding, driven by AI, the Internet of Things (IoT) and edge computing. These technologies are no longer futuristic concepts—they are the foundation of modern business innovation, fueling smarter operations, enhanced customer experiences and entirely new business models. Yet, as enterprises race to integrate these technologies, the gap between potential and realized value remains a challenge. Success requires more than just adoption; it demands a strategic approach that ensures these tools are leveraged in a way that drives measurable business outcomes. At Verizon Business, we work closely with enterprises across industries to navigate this transformation. Through these engagements, we've identified three critical best practices that separate market leaders from those struggling to keep pace: Data-Driven Decision Making: The New Competitive Advantage In today's hyper-connected world, data is the most valuable asset an enterprise can harness. But data alone is not enough—it's the ability to transform raw information into actionable insights in real-time that creates a competitive advantage. AI-powered analytics and edge computing allow businesses to process and act on data at the source, reducing latency and unlocking faster decision making. In industries like manufacturing, real-time IoT insights are helping to prevent equipment failures before they happen. In retail, AI is personalizing customer interactions on the spot. Edge computing is enabling healthcare providers to make instant, life-saving diagnoses at the point of care. The message is clear: Enterprises that invest in real-time, AI-driven decision making can gain agility, efficiency and differentiation in the marketplace. Infrastructure And Security Must Scale With Innovation With the proliferation of AI, IoT and edge computing, enterprises are seeing a massive expansion in the volume of connected devices, data streams and computing endpoints. This rapid scale requires a modernized infrastructure that enables seamless connectivity, low latency and end-to-end security. Private 5G networks, for example, are becoming mission-critical for enterprises looking to support high-bandwidth, low-latency applications. At the same time, AI-driven cybersecurity is essential to protect this expanding attack surface. The more data and devices an enterprise manages, the more sophisticated its security posture must become. A strong digital foundation—built on high-performance networks, cloud integration and zero-trust security frameworks—will determine whether enterprises can scale their innovation securely and efficiently. Aligning Technology Investments With Business Outcomes The most successful enterprises are not investing in AI, IoT and edge computing simply because they are the latest trends. They are doing so with a clear business case and a defined strategy for value creation. Technology investments should be directly tied to business objectives, whether that's improving operational efficiency, unlocking new revenue streams or enhancing customer experiences. Enterprises that take a measured, outcome-based approach to digital transformation—rather than deploying technology for technology's sake—are the ones realizing the highest return on investment. A Call To Action For Enterprise Leaders The convergence of AI, IoT and edge computing represents one of the biggest technological shifts of our time. The opportunity is massive, but so is the complexity. Enterprises that take a strategic, data-driven approach—while prioritizing security and aligning investments with core business objectives—will lead the way in shaping the future of industry. Now is the time for enterprise leaders to act. The future belongs to those who don't just adopt new technology but harness it strategically to transform their businesses for long-term success.
