The Parliamentary Assembly has issued Resolution 2632 to bolster the identification and management of conflicts of interest within its operations, aiming to enhance public trust in Europe's democratic institutions. This resolution outlines improvements for the existing integrity system, including refined definitions and guidance on conflicts of interest, simplification of the code of conduct's language, and the designation of the Council of Europe Ethics Officer for advice on managing such conflicts. Members of the Assembly are urged to clearly declare any personal interests that may conflict with their work and take appropriate remedial steps to prevent any undue influence. The resolution also mandates amendments to the code of conduct and the guidelines for election observation, aiming to establish transparency and ensure conflicts are resolved in favour of the public interest, effective from January 2026.
