SCPC publishes the data on the property status and changes
in the property status of the elected and appointed persons;
however, due to the non-existence of software solution, it is
impossible to have an insight and historical review of all
reported changes in the property status as of the time when
the such persons assumed their functions until the time they
cease to perform their function.
Increased accountability of the elected and appointed
persons and increased information to the public regarding
their property status.
The openness of the data on asset declarations of the
elected and appointed persons via their chronological
publication and historical review in continuity is essential for
overall insight and display of the property status and
changes in the property status of the elected and appointed
persons as of the time of assuming their function until the
cessation thereof. Prerequisite for realization of the
obligation is designing and establishing software solution
which will provide insight in form of open data.
Increased openness of the data on the property status of
elected and appointed persons.
Reference with Target 16 “Peace, justice and strong

corruption and bribe.
The measures of this effort contribute to prevention and
fight against corruption and protection of the public interest
by increasing the accountability and responsibility of the
elected and appointed persons towards the citizens.
Pursuant to Article 35 of the Law on Prevention of
Corruption, the data from the asset declaration and from
the report on the change of property status present
information of public character, except for the data
protected by law. The data from the asset declarations and
from the reports for change of property status, except for
the data protected by law, of the persons referred to in
Article 33 paragraph (1) of this Law are posted to SCPC
website.
With the modifications and amendments to the Law on
Prevention of Corruption from June 2015, SCPC keeps
register of elected and appointed persons which presents
unique database for these persons.
The implementation of these norms, the submission of data
to SCPC for mandate verification, election i.e. appointment
and cessation of the function i.e. duty becomes an
obligation of the institutions and bodies performing
elections and appointments, thus entirely exceeding the
problem for overall and trustworthy recording of the public
function holders. SCPC intensively took over all activities for
