ODIHR Public Ethics and Integrity Toolkit: Guidelines for Parliaments

This tool is designed to support national parliaments in OSCE participating States in developing parliamentary integrity systems. It provides a concise roadmap for designing and implementing a code of conduct for MPs from scratch, as well as guidance for parliaments that want to improve their existing integrity systems.

Based on ODIHR’s 2022 publication, Parliamentary Integrity: A Resource for Reformers, the tool contains the key standards, good practices and issues to consider when developing and adopting a robust parliamentary code of conduct. It also includes strategies for effective review, assessment and updating of established parliamentary integrity systems. By understanding that integrity mechanisms are dynamic, responsive frameworks that require regular refreshing in line with the evolving political landscape, these instruments can support meaningful, sustainable parliamentary integrity.
