Ukraine's Justice Ministry and the National Agency for Corruption Prevention (NACP) have agreed on cooperation and exchange of information.

The memorandum was signed by Justice Minister Pavlo Petrenko and NACP Head Natalia Korchak in Kyiv on Wednesday.

"The memo envisages the uniting of efforts on provision of access to all electronic registers of the Justice Ministry to the National Agency," he said at a briefing.

Petrenko said that the Justice Ministry will help NACP in operating the public registers.

"The launch of the National Agency for Corruption Prevention, the launch of the electronic declaration and monitoring of mode of living of civil servants is a serious preventive measure to purify the civil service from person who cannot explain their property," the minister said.

Korchak said that the automatic access to the registers would help the agency's employees to verify data mentioned in electronic declarations of civil servants.
