EU Anti-Corruption Report an important step in promoting good governance in Ireland
Dublin, 3 February 2014
The European Commission published its first report on corruption among the 28 EU Member States today. The report which includes a chapter on corruption in Ireland, calls on the Irish Government to put more effort into prosecuting corruption cases, as well as imposing limits on the value of donations that individuals can give in any year. It also recommends that Ireland establishes an urban planning regulator and addresses the risk of conflicts of interest effectively, especially at local government level.
