Regarding the prevention of corruption and the promotion of integrity in Central Governments (top executive functions) and Law Enforcement agencies
On 2 October 2023, the Evaluation Report of Cyprus within the framework of GRECO’s Fifth Evaluation Round was published, containing 22 recommendations addressed to Cyprus. Today, the Compliance Report was made public on GRECO website and on the website of the Law Office of the Republic of Cyprus, with the measures taken by the Cypriot authorities to implement them.
Out of the 22 recommendations, Cyprus managed to fully implement 6 from the very first compliance (4 concerning the Central Government, 2 concerning the Police). Additionally, progress was made on a significant number of the remaining recommendations. Specifically, out of the remaining 16 recommendations, 13 have been partially implemented (7 Central Government, 6 Police), while 3 have not yet been implemented (2 Central Government, 1 Police).
GRECO notes significant progress in several key areas of the “top executive functions” and welcomes specific actions taken in the “law enforcement agencies”, while encouraging the Cypriot authorities to carry out the ongoing reforms and promote further measures regarding the outstanding recommendations.
According to Rule 30.2 of GRECO’s Rules of Procedure, the Cypriot Authorities are requested to submit a report on further measures taken to implement the outstanding Recommendations by 31 December 2026.
