Opinion On the Law on the Bureau on Prevention and Combating of Corruption of Latvia

At the outset, the OSCE/ODIHR notes that the Law generally complies with international anti-corruption standards, as well as with relevant OSCE commitments. Some improvements may be considered, in particular: • no outside body or actor should control or influence the Bureau; • limiting the appointment of the Head of Bureau to a single term; • creation of one or more advisory committees; • mechanisms of the Bureau should be strengthened in the course of its investigations.
