ZAGREB, March 31 (Hina) - The Croatian parliament on Friday adopted the National Anti-Corruption Programme for 2006-2008, proposed by the government with the aim of demonstrating political will and determination to reduce corruption to a level that would not obstruct Croatia's economic, social, political and other development.

The programme focuses on the prevention of corruption, i.e. systematic anti-corruption activity at all levels.

The programme suggests a systematic reform of the health system, notably health insurance and primary health care, and waiting lists for medicines and medical examinations.

With regard to the judiciary, which is perceived by the public as the most corrupt sector, the program calls for continuing with reforms, solving the backlog of cases, ensuring trials within a reasonable period of time, and introducing declarations of assets for judges and state prosecutors.

The program also urges stricter control of government spending for local self-government bodies and binds political parties to be consistent and transparent in financial activities and to prevent conflict of interest.

The Justice Ministry and the State Prosecutor's Office are urged to become more involved in the discovery and prosecution of corruption, review punishment for corruption and introduce protective measures in cases of confiscation of property acquired through corruption.

The program also envisages the establishment of a national council monitoring its implementation. The council would consist of parliamentary deputies, representatives of employees, trade unions, NGOs, the academic community and the media and be chaired by a representative of the parliamentary opposition.

With the adoption of the anti-corruption program the Sabor ended its sitting, which is to continue on April 10.
