Mrs. Laura Stefan, Romanian Academic Society, Romania

Slide 1

The role of NGOs - taking the process one step further on stormy days

A view from the Romanian Academic Society Laura Stefan, Tibilisi, June 2008

Slide 2

Institutional weapons that work

• Freedom of Information Acts permanently monitored • Transparent and compulsory statements of assets and wealth • Transparent contracts for public works • Public exposure of corruption cases

208

Anti-Corruption Network for Eastern Europe and Central Asia 7th General Meeting, 25-27 June 2008, Tbilisi, Georgia

Slide 3 Two Romanian case studies

The importance of NGOs Coalitions: • The power comes from working together • Efforts from individual NGOs bear less weight and can be more easily undermined • All decisions in the coalitions need to be agreed by all members Examples to be addressed • Coalition for a Clean Parliament – 2004 • Coalition for a Clean Justice – 2007

Slide 4

Romanian Coalition for a Clean Parliament 1. Building the civic coalition on behalf of the „losers‟ 2. Defining political integrity and agreeing with political parties 3. Monitoring political integrity 4. Putting pressure on parties to drop black listed candidates 5. Taking it to the media and the voters

Slide 5

Coalition for a Clean Parliament criteria for MPs

• Profit from conflict on interest; contracts of his business or family in connection with his official position • Tax arrears to state budget of his business • Prior investigations for corruption and mismanagement • Repeated transfer from one party to another to gain or keep office and other advantages

209

Anti-Corruption Network for Eastern Europe and Central Asia 7th General Meeting, 25-27 June 2008, Tbilisi, Georgia

Slide 6

Procedure • Obtain the candidate lists from the political parties • Draft an initial black list by applying the criteria on the candidates of the political parties • Negotiate with the political parties the withdrawal form the list of “grey” candidates • Publicize the “grey” candidates that the parties decide to keep on the lists

Slide 7

OUTCOMES

• Obligation to continue monitoring – the same mechanism was replicated for European Elections and for Local Elections • NGOs involvement in the new anticorruption strategy of Romania, new assets and interests disclosure forms, new procurement legislation • While some “grey” candidates were withdrawn, almost 100 black listed MPs still in Parliament. • Parties created internal screening mechanism for integrity

Slide 8

After accession to the EU • Standards tend to go down after accession – see the case of Slovenia and Romania • Politicians see accession as the end of the road and tend to dispose of institutions and legislation that were put in place to fulfill pre-accession requirements • Post-accession monitoring mechanisms are crucial, though the EU has not find yet the best way to approach this challenge • External pressure needs to be replaced by internal pressure • After the accession to the EU, funds available for NGOs in the area of fight against corruption became scarce • NGOs faced with the challenge of redefining the priorities and alliances

210

Anti-Corruption Network for Eastern Europe and Central Asia 7th General Meeting, 25-27 June 2008, Tbilisi, Georgia

Slide 9

Pressure to reverse the progress in the area of fight against corruption

• Attempts to dismiss high profile anticorruption prosecutors • Threats to the institutional stability of anticorruption institutions • Amendments to undermine the Criminal Procedure Code • Cut in the budget of public prosecution office • Prohibition for other state institutions to work with the prosecutors (tax inspection) • Strong reaction from politicians to protect other politicians under investigation

Slide 10

Coalition for a Clean Justice • Mobilizing NGOs that are still active in the area of justice reform and fight against corruption • Types of reactions: – regular reports - pro-active – press releases and press statements - re-active • Pressure on the Government to refrain from undue conduct • Back-up from external actors – embassies, international organizations
