Latvian Corruption Prevention and Combating Bureau has begun an inspection in relation to information stated in the declaration submitted by the governor of the Bank of Latvia Ilmars Rimsevics.
According to KNAB press-representative Laura Dusa, the bureau plans to assess the declaration for 2015 submitted by Ilmars Rimsevics to check if the document contains information that would breach regulations of the Law on Prevention of Conflict of Interest in Activities of Public Officials.
Last week, at a meeting of Saeima’s Corruption Prevention Sub-committee, deputy Karlis Serzants said Ilmars Rimsevics’ declaration could serve as an appropriate example to allow KNAB to perform inspections of officials’ declarations. In his declaration, Rimsevics stated income from ‘renting out’ his apartment.
