High-level representatives from UN Member States and regional cooperation bodies also participated in the session and shared their perspectives.
Additionally, the NACC delegation, together with representatives from the Ministry of Justice, the Anti-Money Laundering Office (AMLO), and the Royal Thai Police, held a bilateral meeting with the UK Home Office delegation.

During the discussion, the NACC representatives clarified that the mandate of the NACC does not cover fraud offenses in the private sector. Nonetheless, the NACC expressed its full willingness to cooperate with the UK Home Office in matters relating to corruption within its jurisdiction.
