UK Bribery Act 2010 s7: Adequate procedures to prevent bribery by associated persons

What does s7 require?

A relevant commercial organisation (a UK body or partnership carrying on business anywhere, or any body or partnership carrying on business or part of a business in the UK) has in place adequate procedures designed to prevent persons associated with it (anyone performing services for or on its behalf, including employees, agents, subsidiaries and, in the relevant circumstances, contractors, suppliers of services and joint venture parties) from bribing to obtain or retain business or a business advantage for it; this is the defence to the strict-liability section 7 offence, proved on the balance of probabilities, and it applies wherever the bribery occurs (sections 7, 8 and 12(5); MoJ guidance paras 33 to 43).
