Throughout the year, methodological and consulting work was carried out aimed at preventing conflicts of interest and complying with legal requirements», - Tatiana Latyeva reported.
According to her, in 2025, the heads of subordinate institutions took part in a specialized seminar on conflict of interest resolution and the correct filling out of income declarations. To improve anti-corruption literacy, 7 information and methodological materials on relevant topics were sent to subordinate organizations.
Tatiana Latyeva also noted that in the reporting period, the approved annual work plan of the Commission under the Minister of Justice of the Republic of Tatarstan on combating corruption was fully implemented. In 2025, no cases of non-compliance with anti-corruption requirements requiring the application of legal liability measures were identified.
