Cost of civil servants will be controlled, and for gifts - to punish. Since January 2011 will come into force suffering a package of three laws designed to root out corruption. His introduction, we recall, has already postponed several times. The old law "On Combating Corruption, adopted in 1995, will sink into oblivion. As explained to us the chief specialist of the Bureau of Anti-Corruption Policy in the Cabinet Oksana Kononkov, the main differences between the new laws on the acting - nepotism and bribery want to nip in the bud. For example, relatives of the civil service can not be subordinated to each other, and officials who use their position for personal purposes, lobbying for the interests of certain companies in the tenders, taking bribes, threatens not only fine, but jail for a long time. "The new laws will prevent corruption is even a job - says Kononkov. - So, the candidate must provide information on the property, income and financial commitments, including abroad, and pass spetsproverku. In its course, will validate the data on property , the presence of the candidate and the people close to him of corporate rights, about criminal responsibility and liability for corruption. " Has the welfare officer will check each year. All civil servants will be required to annually file a tax return, not only on income but also expenditure. In addition, official prohibition to carry out other paid or entrepreneurial activity (except for teaching, research and creative medpraktiki, instructor and judicial practice of the sport, but after hours) and receive gifts. Another novelty - now under the anti-corruption laws are subject and persons equated to the civil servants: the auditors, notaries, experts, appraisers, arbitration managers, independent brokers or members of labor arbitration in the consideration of collective disputes, the arbitrators. Lawyer Vasily Miroshnichenko said that no ban relatives working in subordination to each other, neither increased the penalties for corruption, it does not destroy, because they always possible "exchange": the son of one official working under the command of his colleagues and vice versa. "Corruption can be eradicated only two ways - simplifying procedures for obtaining permits, when the officer will not be able to demand a bribe, and the certainty of punishment, as in Thailand. It completely changed the structure of law enforcement, renew them by raising wages, and publicly punished dozens of major bribe-takers and it helped, "- said Miroshnichenko. Ordinary officials argue that so-and working honestly, do not take bribes, but most of them are afraid to declare expenses. "It's hit" serednyachki, which employs several thousand hryvnia. Now, even the candy, let's say, do not give to take "- outraged ordinary employee of one of the ministries. "Regular employees, even the chiefs and deputy head, it will not be affected. We are, and so no one gives. Unless we are to each other chocolate can give for their assistance in some matter. So it's not corruption!" This law is more concerned with those who is taller, decisions are made. But there, I think, little will change. Just encrypted will be better "- told us one of the employees of the Cabinet.
