How many people are on the register of corrupt officials?
2420 people were included in the Register of Corrupt Officials last year. This is 65% less than in pre-war 2021. Then the list was expanded by almost 7 thousand entries.
Where are the most corrupt officials
Over the past three years, the Lviv region has become the leader in terms of sentences passed. The number of records since the beginning of the great war has also decreased: if in 2021 there were 537, then in the past there were only 192.
Why they are included in the register
In 2021, people were mainly included in the Register of Corrupt Officials due to violations related to declarations – 75.9% of sentences. Already in 2023, the share of such cases decreased to 1.6%. This is due to the fact that since the beginning of the great war, the NACP did not check the declarations of officials, and the submission of declarations itself was not mandatory.
Therefore, in 2022-2023, more people were included in the register because of the offer or promise of illegal benefits for actions or inaction in power – 38.2% and 53.1% of cases, respectively.
