Mr Gerald Giam Yean Song asked the Minister for Manpower (a) in each year of the past five years, how many complaints have been received by the CPF Board about allegedly fraudulent CPF nominations; (b) how many CPF nominations have been annulled following these complaints; and (c) what are the main reasons for such annulments.
Dr Tan See Leng: Complaints about alleged fraud in relation to Central Provident Fund (CPF) nominations are rare. On average in the past five years, there are fewer than 10 such complaints per year. No cases of fraud were established following CPF Board’s investigations.
However, a minority of nominations were voided as our investigations found that they were not made in accordance with the instructions specified in the nomination form and by the Board.
CPF Board also conducts pro-active verification checks even where there are no complaints. This is part of CPF Board’s suite of safeguards under the CPF nomination scheme.
