Paragraph 1 of article 5 1. Each State Party shall, in accordance with the fundamental principles of its legal system, develop and implement or maintain effective, coordinated anti-corruption policies that promote the participation of society and reflect the principles of the rule of law, proper management of public affairs and public property, integrity, transparency and accountability. 1520 Is your country in compliance with this provision? 0 (Y) Yes 1522 1 Please describe (cite and summarize) the measures/steps your country has taken, if any, (or is planning to take, together with the related appropriate time frame) to ensure full compliance with this provision of the Convention. In 2013 the IOM adopted a new Bribery Act which is closely based on the UK’s Bribery Act 2010. Under the IOM’s 2013 Act it is an offence for commercial organisations to fail to prevent bribery (subject, as in the UK, to the organisation having a defence if has in place adequate procedures to prevent persons associated with it from engaging in conduct that constitutes an offence under the Act). Following the adoption of the Act the IOM published guidance to assist relevant organisations with compliance: <https://www.gov.im/media/868077/_2013-11-28__guidance_to_prevent_bribery.pdf> Under the Bribery Act 2013 it is an offence for public officials not to disclose knowledge or reasonable suspicion of bribery. The IOM Government has adopted an Anti-Bribery Policy which links to the Act: <https://www.gov.im/lib/docs/hr/HR_Policies/antibriberypolicyfinal52016.pdf> As part of its preparation for IOM’s Fifth Round Mutual Evaluation by MONEYVAL in respect of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing measures, the IOM Government undertook a National Risk Assessment (NRA). This exercise, which was coordinated by the IOM Cabinet Office, involved all relevant parts of IOM Government and it involved engagement with the industry on the IOM. The NRA working group suggested that, based on experience and in common with other international business centres, tax evasion, corruption and fraud are the most likely external threats to the IoM. This is corroborated by statistics on the number of incoming MLA requests - see table below. In August 2017 the IOM Government published its Financial Crime Strategy 2017-2020. The Strategy builds on previous work to combat money laundering and terrorist financing, which has been reinforced by the findings of the Island’s MONEYVAL assessment undertaken in 2016. The Strategy was adopted by the Financial Crime Strategic Board (FCSB) with the approval of the Council of Ministers. The FCSB consists of senior officers from government, the regulators and law enforcement, chaired by the Chief Secretary. The FCSB coordinates the development and implementation of cross government policies and activities for AML/CFT proliferation and financial crime generally, including policies concerned with meeting relevant international standards. The Board makes recommendations to the Council of Ministers on policy matters. 1525 1 Please provide examples of the implementation of those measures, including related court or other cases, available statistics etc. 11/01/2018 United Kingdom of UK Crown Dependency - Isle of Man Page 3 of 129 Great Britain and Northern Ireland Incoming letters of request (ILORs): 2013 2014 Money laundering (ML) 7 8 ML + Corruption 4 2 ML + Fraud 15 14 ML + Drugs 1 0 ML + Tax Evasion 0 2 ML + Organised Crime 0 0 Terrorist Financing 0 0 Corruption 4 3 Tax Evasion 8 5 Fraud 24 17 Drugs 4 1 Other 17 11 Total requests 84 63 11/01/2018 United Kingdom of UK Crown Dependency - Isle of Man Page 4 of 129 Great Britain and Northern Ireland 3. Paragraph 2 of article 5 2. Each State Party shall endeavour to establish and promote effective practices aimed at the prevention of corruption. 1520 Is your country in compliance with this provision? 0 (Y) Yes 1522 1 Please describe (cite and summarize) the measures/steps your country has taken, if any, (or is planning to take, together with the related appropriate time frame) to ensure full compliance with this provision of the Convention. See information under Article 5(1) and also Article 9. 1525 1 Please provide examples of the implementation of those measures, including related court or other cases, available statistics etc. See previous answer. 11/01/2018 United Kingdom of UK Crown Dependency - Isle of Man Page 5 of 129 Great Britain and Northern Ireland 4. Paragraph 3 of article 5 3. Each State Party shall endeavour to periodically evaluate relevant legal instruments and administrative measures with a view to determining their adequacy to prevent and fight corruption. 1520 Is your country in compliance with this provision? 0 (Y) Yes 1522 1 Please describe (cite and summarize) the measures/steps your country has taken, if any, (or is planning to take, together with the related appropriate time frame) to ensure full compliance with this provision of the Convention. The IOM introduced a Corruption Act in 2008 in order to comply with various international requirements, including those under this convention. The IOM followed developments in the UK which led to UK’s Bribery Act 2010 and it subsequently agreed that new IOM legislation based on that Act, which was seen as representing a new standard for anti- corruption legislation, should be adopted. The resulting Bribery Act 2013 ensures a similarity in the general principles behind the prosecution of bribery that would in due course enable the IOM to rely on UK judicial authority, where appropriate. 1525 1 Please provide examples of the implementation of those measures, including related court or other cases, available statistics etc. Bribery Act 2013 11/01/2018 United Kingdom of UK Crown Dependency - Isle of Man Page 6 of 129 Great Britain and Northern Ireland 5. Paragraph 4 of article 5 4. States Parties shall, as appropriate and in accordance with the fundamental principles of their legal system, collaborate with each other and with relevant international and regional organizations in promoting and developing the measures referred to in this article. That collaboration may include participation in international programmes and projects aimed at the prevention of corruption. 1520 Is your country in compliance with this provision? 0 (Y) Yes 1522 1 Please describe (cite and summarize) the measures/steps your country has taken, if any, (or is planning to take, together with the related appropriate time frame) to ensure full compliance with this provision of the Convention. The IOM has a close and effective working relationship with the UK, which in turn collaborates with other State Parties and international organisations. 1525 1 Please provide examples of the implementation of those measures, including related court or other cases, available statistics etc.

    Questions & Answers What “Brexit” Means for the Isle Of

    Questions & Answers What “Brexit” means for the Isle of Man What is “Brexit”? In a referendum held on 23 June 2016 the people of the United Kingdom voted by a margin of 52% to 48% to leave the European Union (EU) – a political and economic partnership of 28 European countries. The process of Britain exiting has been labelled “Brexit” in the media and among the public. What is the Isle of Man’s current relationship with the EU? What is Protocol 3? The Isle of Man is not part of the European Union (EU) in its own right, and is not included within the scope of the UK’s membership of the EU. The Isle of Man makes no financial contribution to the European Union nor does it receive any funding from the EU. It is not represented in the European Parliament. The relationship between the Isle of Man and the EU is set out in Protocol 3 to the UK’s Act of Accession by which the UK became a member of the EU. The Protocol allows the Island to be part of the EU customs area which permits the free movement of manufactured goods and agricultural products in trade between the Island and the Union. Protocol 3 can be read here on the Isle of Man Government website: https://www.gov.im/media/624101/protocol3relationshipwiththeeu.pdf Apart from the requirements of the Protocol - in particular that the Isle of Man must apply the same treatment to all natural and legal persons of the EU - other Union rules do not apply.

    List of Certain Foreign Institutions Classified As Official for Purposes of Reporting on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms

    NOT FOR PUBLICATION DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY JANUARY 2001 Revised Aug. 2002, May 2004, May 2005, May/July 2006, June 2007 List of Certain Foreign Institutions classified as Official for Purposes of Reporting on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms The attached list of foreign institutions, which conform to the definition of foreign official institutions on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms, supersedes all previous lists. The definition of foreign official institutions is: "FOREIGN OFFICIAL INSTITUTIONS (FOI) include the following: 1. Treasuries, including ministries of finance, or corresponding departments of national governments; central banks, including all departments thereof; stabilization funds, including official exchange control offices or other government exchange authorities; and diplomatic and consular establishments and other departments and agencies of national governments. 2. International and regional organizations. 3. Banks, corporations, or other agencies (including development banks and other institutions that are majority-owned by central governments) that are fiscal agents of national governments and perform activities similar to those of a treasury, central bank, stabilization fund, or exchange control authority." Although the attached list includes the major foreign official institutions which have come to the attention of the Federal Reserve Banks and the Department of the Treasury, it does not purport to be exhaustive. Whenever a question arises whether or not an institution should, in accordance with the instructions on the TIC forms, be classified as official, the Federal Reserve Bank with which you file reports should be consulted. It should be noted that the list does not in every case include all alternative names applying to the same institution.
  • Monitoring & Compliance

    Monitoring & Compliance

    I N S I G H T 4 Monitoring & Compliance: MSIs employ inadequate methods to detect human rights abuses and uphold standards The Institute for Multi-Stakeholder Initiative Integrity (MSI Integrity) aims to reduce the harms and human rights abuses caused or exacerbated by the private sector. For the past decade, MSI Integrity has investigated whether, when and how multi-stakeholder initiatives protect and promote human rights. The culmination of this research is now available in our report, Not Fit-for-Purpose: The Grand Experiment of Multi-Stakeholder Initiatives in Corporate Accountability, Human Rights and Global Governance. The full report contains six insights from experience with, and research into, international standard-setting multi-stakeholder initiatives. It also contains key conclusions from these insights, and perspectives on a way forward for improving the protection of human rights against corporate-related abuses. This is an excerpt of the full report, focusing on Insight 4. The six insights are: Insight 1: Influence — MSIs have been influential as human rights tools, but that influence, along with their credibility, is waning. Insight 2: Stakeholder Participation — MSIs entrench corporate power by failing to include rights holders and by preventing civil society from acting as an agent of change. Insight 3: Standards & Scope — Many MSIs adopt narrow or weak standards that overlook the root causes of abuses or risk creating a misperception that they are being effectively addressed. Insight 4: Monitoring & Compliance — MSIs employ inadequate methods to detect human rights abuses and uphold standards. Insight 5: Remedy — MSIs are not designed to provide rights holders with access to effective remedy.

    Isle of Man Constabulary Digital Priorities 2016‐2017 October 2016 www.iompolice.im www.gov.im/digitalstrategy Isle of Man Constabulary Digital Priorities 2016 ‐ 2017 As outlined in the strategic plan, the challenges facing modern policing are complex and ever growing. Whilst the number of offences recorded continue to decline and the Island continues to be one the safest places in the British Isles to live and work, complex crime is growing and the Island is increasingly no longer insulated from an ever connected global society. In parallel expectations are increasing – citizens are rightly expecting more information, more immediate and digital contact with the Police and expect the Police to be adopting modern technologies – technologies which are also increasingly needed to keep pace with criminals. These two challenges are further complicated by the constant need for efficiency – funds available to the constabulary are at an all time low and the force needs to be adapting and seeking every opportunity to be more efficient and to target its precious resources in the places most needed. For these reasons the Constabulary has now embraced its own Digital Priorities – the priority projects and initiatives as part of Isle of Man Government’s overall digital strategy, to deliver improved outcomes from digital thinking , from using technology to work together – inside and outside the force across society, and to learn intelligently from the information available in a digital society to predict, react to and ultimately deter and prevent crime. A safe Island requires a modern, digitally enabled police force. One which brings fingertip information to its professional officers and staff when and where they need it.
