Meeting of Anti-Corruption Council Presidium

November 13, 2012

Chief of Staff of the Presidential Executive Office Sergei Ivanov held a meeting of the Presidium of the Presidential Council for Countering Corruption.

The meeting reviewed the results of work on developing and using innovative technology that make government bodies’ activities more objective and transparent and ensure their cooperation with organisations and the general public.

Mr Ivanov noted that many state services are now provided online and that a stable channel for information exchange between the government bodies and society is gradually taking shape. All of this will help to close corruption loopholes and will raise public assessments of the state authorities’ work.

Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy to the Central Federal District Alexander Beglov and Mayor of Moscow Sergei Sobyanin made reports on the methods regions in the Central Federal District are using to combat corruption.

First Deputy Prosecutor General Alexander Buksman briefed the meeting on the results of an evaluation of Russia’s enforcement of the UN Anti-Corruption Convention, noting that the report recognised that Russian legislation is enforcing the vast majority of the Convention’s provisions in full.

The meeting also examined a draft regulation drawn up by the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection on the declaration, handover, evaluation, sale, and payment of money from the sale of gifts received by particular categories of people.
