Aimed primarily at allowing free public access to information concerning anything connected to public funding, the laws have allowed journalistic, academic, & activist access. The district's initiative establishes a council for public information in order to facilitate exchange between civil society & all three branches of government. It is concluded that the initiative, in addition to encouraging openness, credibility, & honesty, will also foster a political atmosphere of tolerance among political forces in the legislative assembly. 8 References.

In order to achieve the stated objective, dialectics and the historical method were used. In addition, the following methods were also used in the research process: the structural-logical method, the method of scientific abstraction, analysis and synthesis, modeling and the method of abstract conclusion. According to the results of the study it is concluded that the approached system has a complex internal structure, with significant impact on the educational process. definitely, it is proved that an objective evaluation in the system of quality assurance of academic virtue of the university, in the general framework of legal certainty, plays an important role in the institution of higher education and cannot be ignored. After all, it is precisely such components of academic virtue as: justice, trust, respect, responsibility, honesty that are at the same time universal values, moral and ethical ideals of a highly developed society and, fundamentally, the key to the successful development of the state as a whole in the democratic system.
El presente trabajo aborda la experiencia británica en materia de códigos de conducta aprobados y pensados para los miembros del gobierno y del parlamento. Esta experiencia es muy rica pues se inicia a finales del siglo pasado y no ha parado de evolucionar en paralelo a las crecientes demandas a favor de una mayor honradez en la vida pública británica. Además las peculiaridades de la «constitución» británica y, en particular, el uso de «convenciones constitucionales» para articular estos códigos han resultado un campo muy fértil para un uso razonable de este tipo de códigos. Precisamente por esas peculiaridades tan británicas la traslación de esta experiencia al resto de Europa resulta muy problemática, si bien se puede aprender mucho de los problemas y de las fórmulas empleados para resolverlos en el Reino Unido. lan horretan, Bretainia Handian gobernuko eta parlamentuko kideentzat onartutako eta pentsatutako jarrera kodeak aztertzen dira. Esperientzia hori oso aberatsa da, iragan mendearen hasieran hasi baitzen eta etengabe eboluzionatu baita, britainiar bizitza publikoan zintzotasun handiagoa eskatzen zen heinean. Horrez gain, Bretainia Handiko «konstituzio»aren berezitasunei eta, bereziki, kodeok egituratzeko «konstituzio konbentzio»en erabilpenari esker, bide zabala dago kode mota hori erabiltzeko. Hain zuzen, berezitasun horiek kontuan izaki, bertako esperientzia Europa osora hedatzea ez da erraza, baina asko ikas daiteke Erresuma Batuan erabilitako arazoetatik eta beroriek konpontzeko erabilitako formuletatik. This work deals with the British experience on Codes of Conduct approved and envisaged for the Government and Parliament members. This experience is very broad as it started at the end of the past century and it has been evolving since then together with the growing demands for a greater honesty in British public life. Furthermore, the peculiarities of the British «constitution» and particularly the use of «constitutional conventions» in order to articulate those codes have been a very fertile breeding ground for a reasonable use of those type of codes. It is precisely for such British peculiarities that the transposition of this experience to the rest of Europe is very problematic, while there is a lot to be learnt of the problems and formula used to solve them in the United Kingdom.
