The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, in response to previous corruption scandals and ongoing concerns about ethical conduct, has resolved to enhance its ethical standards and mechanisms to combat corruption. This includes regular reviews of ethical frameworks, improved transparency, stricter rules on declarations of interests, and protection for whistle-blowers. Specific adjustments involve the establishment of updated codes of conduct for members, better enforcement and reporting procedures, and clear guidelines for handling conflicts of interest, improper gifts, and lobbying activities. Amendments also highlight the roles and responsibilities of Assembly members and call for developing ethical standards within political groups and election observation missions, ensuring that declarations of interests are transparent and comprehensive. The resolution underscores the need for sustained diligence and integrity in maintaining the Council's ethical standards and public trust.
