Compliance with anti-corruption legislation requirements is under control

In order to address corruption and protect the economic security of the state, law enforcement and other bodies of the district have implemented organizational, legal, practical, and other measures this year aimed at ensuring strict compliance with the requirements of anti-corruption legislation.

In the past period of 2016, 3 corruption-related crimes were registered in the district, and 1 criminal case of this category was considered by the district court.

Thus, by the verdict of the Braslav District Court dated 12.05.2016, Selitsky E.M. was sentenced to a penalty in the form of deprivation of the right to hold positions related to the performance of organizational, managerial, and administrative-economic duties for a period of 2 years with a fine of 50 base units in the amount of 10,500,000 rubles. While working as the director of the Tourist and Health Resort Subsidiary Unitary Enterprise "Braslav Lakes" from January 2014 to September 30, 2015, based on supply agreements for spare parts for vehicles of UP "Braslav Lakes" concluded with individual entrepreneur Babinsky D.V., he ordered spare parts for official vehicles totaling 3,957,000 rubles, after which he paid for them by non-cash transfer of funds from UP "Braslav Lakes", appropriated them, and used them for personal purposes.

Also, systematic inspections conducted by the district prosecutor's office at enterprises and organizations in the district reveal violations of anti-corruption legislation, which in their entirety may lead to the commission of corruption offenses.

The district prosecutor's office conducted an inspection of compliance with anti-corruption legislation at KUP "Braslavskoye RKBO", during which violations were identified.

For example, the annual state procurement plan was not posted on the official website http://www.icetrade.by for 2014-2015.

In June 2014, KUP "Braslavskoye RKBO" purchased a washing machine B10-322 and a drying machine VS-10 for a total amount of 72,350,400 rubles using funds from the district budget.

The specified procurement was carried out by means of a single-source procurement procedure, as a result of which the supplier ODO "Agromasbyt" was selected, which offered the lowest cost.

Meanwhile, in accordance with clause 1.5 of the Resolution of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Belarus No. 778 dated August 22, 2012 "On some measures for the implementation of the Law of the Republic of Belarus "On State Procurement of Goods (Works, Services)", the procedure for requesting price proposals is applied when the threshold value of the estimated cost of annual demand for state procurement of goods is from 300 to 1000 basic units. On the date of acquisition of the above-mentioned machines (June 17, 2014), their cost was 482.3 basic units, which exceeds 300 basic units.

Thus, the procurement of the washing machine B10-322 and the drying machine VS-10 should have been carried out by means of the procedure for requesting price proposals and by posting this state procurement on the official website http://www.icetrade.by.

Also, in violation of Articles 29 and 30 of the Law of the Republic of Belarus "On State Procurement of Goods (Works, Services)", the customer did not prepare a certificate on the state procurement procedure within five working days from the date of conclusion of the contract, and the case for this state procurement procedure was not properly formed.

Based on the results of single-source procurement procedures carried out in 2015 (procurement of various types of fabrics), the certificates of state procurement did not in all cases contain the signatures, full name of the responsible executor, and dates of completion of these documents, which also violates Article 29 of the Law of the Republic of Belarus "On State Procurement of Goods (Works, Services)".

In addition, during the above-mentioned single-source procurement procedures, the customer, in violation of Article 50 of the Law, did not attach documents (certificates) on the results of market research and preliminary negotiations with suppliers known to him.

Based on the identified violations, a representation was made to the director of KUP "Braslav RKBO", which was considered, and 1 official was brought to

disciplinary liability, a protocol on an administrative offense under Part 4 of Article 11.16 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Republic of Belarus was drawn up by the district prosecutor's office against the former director of KUP "Braslavsky RKBO" Mikhailov A.I., and by the decision of the Braslav District Court dated May 23, 2016, Mikhailov A.I. was brought to administrative responsibility under the specified article of the Code of Administrative Offenses, he was fined 10 basic units in the amount of 2,100,000 rubles.
