Contents

In 2011 the European Commission adopted the so-called ‘anti-corruption package’, a set of measures to address more vigorously the serious harm generated by corruption at economic, social and political levels. One year later, in March 2012, the new proposal for a Directive on freezing and confiscation was published.

The conference will discuss these recent EU policy developments and legislative reforms and will present the results of a study commissioned by OLAF and to be published in March-April 2013 aimed at collecting information and developing methodologies to assist both the Commission and Member States' authorities with the implementation of the new EU anti-corruption policies.

The study is intended to provide tools which may feed into the general anti-corruption review mechanism, improve the application of public procurement rules and promote implementation of the Commission’s anti-fraud strategy in the Member States.
Presentations will be made by national, European and international experts. The role and contribution of OLAF will be outlined and concrete international and European cases presented.
