Regional Anti-Corruption Program of Sverdlovsk Oblast

Background

The Regional Anti-Corruption Program of Sverdlovsk Oblast is a regional policy instrument that sets out measures for preventing and countering corruption within the oblast’s public administration. As a government program, it is intended to guide the work of regional authorities and related public bodies, and it may affect how officials, institutions, and administrative procedures are organized and monitored. In practical terms, such a program serves as a framework for compliance, oversight, and coordination across the regional executive system.

The program was approved by Decree of the Governor of Sverdlovsk Oblast No. 168-UG on 12 May 2025. Its adoption by the governor places it within the oblast’s executive authority, rather than as a federal legal act, and indicates that it operates as part of the regional implementation of anti-corruption policy. The context for the instrument is the broader public administration goal of reducing corruption risks, strengthening transparency, and improving accountability in state and municipal governance.

The program’s significance lies in how it formalizes a regional anti-corruption agenda and provides the basis for subsequent administrative adjustments. On 6 March 2026, Governor Decree No. 86-UG amended the program, showing that it remained an active policy instrument after its initial approval. The amendment suggests that its provisions were being updated to reflect changing administrative needs or policy priorities, while the core status of the program as a governing framework for regional anti-corruption work remained in place.
