The Chamber of Commerce has sent a letter to the Department of Justice (DOJ), asking for clarification on what constitutes a bribe under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). The DOJ has been concluding a string of high-profile FCPA prosecutions, but the aggressive actions by the government have raised questions about how it enforces the law, according to the Chamber of Commerce. The head of the DOJ's Criminal Division has promised that clarification would be forthcoming, while the Chamber of Commerce also continues its legistlative campaign to amend the law.
