Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what steps he is taking to support efforts by the Government of Ukraine to tackle official corruption; and what assessment he has made of the progress of such efforts.

​We have provided strong political and practical support to efforts by the Ukrainian Government to tackle corruption. UK support has included financial and capacity-building for new institutions such as the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine, and technical expertise for the launch of the Asset Declaration System for public officials. We welcome the commitments made by the Ukrainian government to tackle corruption at the London Anti-Corruption Summit in 2016.
