According to a Facebook post by Kementerian Sumber Manusia, the session was chaired by JPPM Deputy Director-General Meriam Mohd Noor, while the KESUMA delegation was led by Head of Integrity Unit Ho Ka Nyan.

Discussions focused on a proposal to establish an Integrity Unit within JPPM in line with MyPPSM Ceraian SP 1.2.1, which outlines the establishment of Integrity Units across all public sector agencies.
