I may be wrong but it looks like a smart  dual move:

Move 1: try to find a way to avoid investigating the case proven by the British investigators, because it would involve "good people"

Move 2: launch an investigation on a case which has not been found by investigators in UK in order to distract attention and pretend to fight corruption.

The "independent NACC" must be seriously worried because they just launched another enquiry on a purchase of CCTV cameras for the parliament that was judged in the US in 2012. An additional attempt to distract attention.
