Acceptation of the Government Policy for Combating Corruption in Conditions of Municipalities

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The paper focuses on the basic level of self - government and the acceptation of the government policy of fighting corruption. The resource for the theoretical part is the analysis of government docu ments, which are the Action Plans for Combating Corruption for selected years. The aim of the questionnaire survey is to find out whether municipality officials are able to correctly define the basic concepts of corruption and corrupt behavior in accordanc e with legal regulations and with regard to the government information strategy in this area. The aim of the government is to adopt a new law against corruption. The partial objective of the empirical research is to find out whether municipal officials hav e the necessary information to apply government policy at this level and whether these officials are informed about the ongoing legislative process. And whether the officials know which professions in public and state administration will be covered by this law. The result of an empirical research, for example, is the statement that 82% of respondents correctly answered what is not corruption or corrupt behavior, but nearly 80% of respondents incorrectly defined a definition of corruption, according to the law. Half of the total number of reported corruption cases on the level of municipal and state offices is concerned to elected members of the municipal council. Less than one third of respondents answered correctly that proven corrupt behavior of employees has to be r eported to authorities in criminal proceedings (Police).
