The National Agency on Corruption Prevention (NAСP) continues its systematic work to identify violations of legislation on the prevention and resolution of conflicts of interest.

NACP has compiled and sent to the Kharkiv Specialised Prosecutor's Office for the Eastern Region a reasoned opinion on officials of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration (RMA) who may have concluded contracts for the purchase of steel pipes at inflated prices, causing losses to the budget of over UAH 2.4 million. Their actions were classified under Part 5 of Article 191 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.

NACP also prepared and sent to the National Police of Ukraine (NPU) a reasoned conclusion on the commission of an administrative offence related to corruption against the former Director General of the State Enterprise ‘Setam’ of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine. He acted in a situation of real conflict of interest and systematically made decisions on bonuses for a close person. His actions were classified under Article 172-7 of the Code of Administrative Offences.

Another well-founded conclusion on the detection of signs of an administrative offence related to corruption was sent by the NACP to the NPU regarding the head of one of the state-owned enterprises of the State Administration of Affairs (SAA), who, acting in a real conflict of interest, appointed a close person to a position and subsequently awarded them bonuses. His actions were classified under Article 172-7 of the Code of Administrative Offences.

In addition, authorised persons of the NACP drew up and sent to court reports on administrative offences under Article 172-7 of the Code of Administrative Offences against:

  • the head of the personnel department of the Chernihiv District Administrative Court, who, while performing the duties of the head of the apparatus, independently awarded himself a bonus;
  • a member of the Ukrainian Parliament who addressed the director of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine on matters of personal interest, acting in a conflict of interest.
  • The officials face administrative penalties in the form of fines and inclusion in the Unified State Register of Persons Who Have Committed Corruption or Corruption-Related Offences.

In addition, based on the established violations of the requirements of the Law on ethical conduct, prevention and resolution of conflicts of interest, the NACP issued five orders to eliminate the violations, conduct an official investigation and bring the perpetrators to justice in accordance with the law:

  • To the Head of the National Commission for State Regulation in the Spheres of Energy and Public Utilities – for failure to report by a deputy of one of the commission's departments a potential conflict of interest in connection with the fact that a close person is subordinate to the latter;
  • The Minister for Strategic Industries – regarding the head of the board of a state institution who has a potential conflict of interest due to the recovery of funds from him under enforcement proceedings in favour of the institution he heads.
  • Minister of Energy – regarding the violation by the acting general director of a state-owned enterprise under the jurisdiction of the said ministry of the requirements of Article 36 of the Law, in particular, the said official failed to transfer corporate rights within the time limit and in the manner prescribed by law;
  • The head of the State Administration of Affairs – regarding the head of a state-owned enterprise who also failed to transfer corporate rights;
  • The rector of the Bogomolets National Medical University – for a similar violation;

NACP continues to consistently implement its anti-corruption policy to ensure the integrity and accountability of public officials. The results of the NACP's work in this area for the previous months can be found at link.
