lpv:translated text	". There are various factors that contribute to corruption as a transnational problem. What is crucial is an integrated and flexible common strategy, which will enable us to achieve greater transparency, less bureaucracy, a greater simplification of rules and effective control mechanisms, in the aim of preventing conditions conducive to the proliferation of corruption from arising, and to increase opportunities for detecting and punishing such practices. We must fight against corruption both in the public sector, where it undermines the operation of the democratic system and citizens’ confidence in the integrity of the democratic rule of law, and in the private sector, where corruption tends to distort the rules of competition and prevent healthy economic development. I therefore regret the fact that this proposal for a framework decision is intended to regulate only the private and not the public sector, especially given that national legislations are still not harmonised – there are, for example four Member States that have still not ratified the EU Convention on corruption in the public sector – which could give rise to situations of objective legal uncertainty. Furthermore, establishing a different regulatory approach to corruption in the private sector, which is the subject of this framework decision, and to corruption in the public sector, the subject of the 1997 EU Convention, could also create problems in implementing the framework decision on the European arrest warrant. I therefore call on the Commission to present a proposal to regulate these two types of crime."@en1
