The Government held a regular session of the Anti-corruption Policy Council, chaired by Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.
According to the Presidential Office, the agenda included a presentation on the work carried out in the field of corruption prevention.
Mariam Galstyan, Acting Chairperson of the Corruption Prevention Commission (CPC), presented the introduction of pilot methodologies in the corruption risk assessment and management system, legislative regulations, and the adoption of a legislative package in the integrity study system.
She also discussed the monitoring of the financial activities of political parties and the legislative changes introduced in the integrity system for public officials and civil servants. Additionally, details were provided on the results of the declaration system.
According to the source, a discussion was held on these issues.
The Prime Minister emphasized that a key prerequisite for implementing an effective anti-corruption policy is not only political will but also the development of institutions.
He noted that the issue is much broader and extends beyond the Corruption Prevention Commission, as it should also be considered in the context of the judicial system and socio-psychological factors.
Pashinyan stressed the importance of anti-corruption education and highlighted the need for strategic decisions aimed at raising public awareness about corruption and its various manifestations.
