The draft provides for the establishment of a coordinated national framework for the prevention, detection and combating of fraud affecting the financial interests of the state, the EU and external development partners. The document, drawn up by the Ministry of Finance, was finalised and published on 9 November. It comprises nine specific objectives and a set of actions to strengthen cooperation between the responsible institutions.
The proposed measures include the development of a national methodology for assessing and managing fraud risks, strengthening the authorities’ access to registers and information systems, and standardising procedures for reporting and forwarding suspicions of fraud. The programme also aims to improve the exchange of information between institutions.
The document also provides for the development of IT tools for recording and monitoring cases, staff training, awareness-raising campaigns and the strengthening of cooperation with the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF).
The implementation of the actions set out in the Programme is estimated to cost 9 million lei, according to the explanatory memorandum.
The drafting of the document is linked to the Republic of Moldova’s commitments in the process of accession to the European Union, in particular the requirements under Chapter 32 – Financial Control. The programme is still at the draft stage and is due to be submitted to the Government for approval.
