The main objective of this document is to improve approaches to countering corruption, as well as to address existing problems related to assessing the level of corruption in state and local government bodies. The law is also aimed at developing digital processes and organizing educational events that will contribute to the formation of an anti-corruption culture and the creation of an atmosphere of intolerance towards corruption. This aligns with the president's decree on the state strategy for combating corruption for the years 2025-2030.
The law includes the following key provisions:
- definition of the subject of regulation, tasks, and objectives for combating corruption, as well as the creation of a clear conceptual framework to eliminate the possibility of ambiguous interpretation, which will help reduce the likelihood of abuses;
- establishment of the circle of entities involved in the fight against corruption and the definition of their functions, as well as the responsibilities of state and local authorities, institutions, and enterprises with state or municipal participation;
- measures to prevent and combat corruption, holding violators accountable, as well as actions to minimize and eliminate the consequences of corrupt crimes;
- assignment to the authorized body for combating corruption the responsibilities for maintaining a unified register of corruption-related crimes, and to the body responsible for state and municipal service — the maintenance of a register of offenses related to conflicts of interest.
The law will come into force ten days after its official publication.
