MEC Monitoring of Ministry Anti-Corruption plans: Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation, 2017

MEC’s review was carried out in June and July of 2017. MoRR’s plan consists of nine actions across three priority areas. The Ministry was cooperative with MEC in this effort and approximately 20 interviews were conducted, together with a number of document reviews. MEC’s findings are expressed in two broad areas: the general scope of the MoRR’s Plan; and the detailed progress of the action items in the ACP. Previously, MoRR had no plan about how to tackle corruption. Nevertheless, the current leadership of the Ministry has set a clear roadmap about how to fight against corruption by developing an Anti-Corruption Plan. While the Anti-Corruption Plan of MoRR appears to be too narrow, the Ministry is progressing in this fight.
