EpT does not know how many politicians and public office holders must declare their income

The Entity for Transparency (EpT) publicly acknowledged that it cannot accurately and reliably determine the exact number of holders of political positions and senior public offices who are required to submit income and interests declarations. The EpT's admission appears as a confession of limitation in fulfilling its mission of overseeing and controlling these declarative obligations. The body responsible for transparency in the public sphere thus acknowledges a significant gap in its capacity to monitor and track those required to make declarations. The situation raises questions about the effectiveness of existing control mechanisms and the State's capacity to ensure full compliance with transparency obligations by all political and public actors.
