In Mykolaiv, integrity will be checked at two municipal enterprises of the city. After that they are reformed

This was reported by the city mayor Oleksandr Sienkevych.

Inspections should start in November at KP Mykolaivoblteploenergo and KP Mykolaivelectrotrans utility companies. It is noted that the level of management, transparency and accountability of the KPs will be assessed, and potential corruption risks will be determined.

«After receiving detailed reports, we will draw conclusions, implement recommendations and implement relevant reforms,» Oleksandr Sienkevych added.

He also said that the EU Anti-Corruption Initiative has already announced a competition to find a company that will conduct an integrity assessment at the city's utility companies.

The mayor also reminded that the Mykolaivvodokanal enterprise passed a similar inspection last year.

«Corporate governance reform and implementation of new procurement practices are currently actively underway there. This was among the main recommendations of the experts after the integrity assessment,» he added.

We will remind that on March 5, the international company Deloitte, which is one of the four largest auditors in the world, presented the results of the integrity assessment of the Mykolaivvodokanal utility company. The company received 579 points out of 1025 possible.
