TI welcomes new EU mandate to fight corruption 
Berlin/Brussels, 15 December 2009

Transparency International (TI), the global coalition against corruption, welcomes the inclusion of an anti-corruption stipulation in the next 5-year plan for the European Union’s Justice and Home Affairs (Stockholm Programme), and calls on the EU to include concrete anti-corruption measures for EU member states in the post-Stockholm action plan.

The Stockholm Programme is a plan whose implementation will -among other home affairs areas- define EU action to evaluate and fight corruption, including crucial areas affecting the security of EU citizens such as police and customs cooperation, rescue services, criminal and civil law cooperation. The post-Stockholm action plan, to be adopted in June 2010, must include concrete anti-corruption requirements for EU member states to comply with.
