BRAZIL NEW MEMBER OF THE ANTI-CORRUPTION MECHANISM
August 12, 2002
Brazil last Friday became the twenty-seventh member of the Mechanism for Follow-up on the Implementation of the Inter-American Convention against Corruption, upon the signing of the corresponding declaration by the Permanent Representative of Brazil to the Organization of American States (OAS), Ambassador Valter Pecly Moreira. On July 24, 2002, Brazil had deposited the ratification instrument of this Treaty in the OAS General Secretariat.
The OAS Member States adopted the Inter-American Convention against Corruption in 1996 as a means to strengthen cooperation for the prevention, detection, sanction and elimination of this problem.
In order to follow-up on the obligations under this Convention, and to monitor how the Convention itself is being implemented, in June 2001 the States Parties created a Mechanism for Follow-up on the Implementation of this Convention. Through this instrument each State accepts that other States would review implementation of the provisions adopted in the Convention and present recommendations on areas needing improvement and review the follow-up—through the Committee of Experts and in accordance with equal abiding rules for all.
Civil society organizations may contribute to this exercise as part of this Mechanism, the main purpose of which is to strengthen cooperation among the States in combating the problem of corruption. The first round of review of the States has commenced and States must respond to the questionnaire by the end of this month.
