KIEV, October 6. /TASS/. Ukraine’s Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk presented to the government anti-corruption measures on Monday.

Among the suggested measures are “free access to all databases of real estate ownership”. High-ranking officials will be obliged to declare both incomes and expenses as well as report valuables and currency. The government will be monitoring their private lives.

The prime minister said the suggestions “were made with support of experts from Western countries” and would be effective for members of the government, staff of the presidential administration, regional administrations and other high-level officials.

“As the government adopts the measures, they will be presented to the Verkhovna Rada (parliament)”, he said.

The Ukrainian parliament may discuss the anti-corruption measures at the session on October 7.
