It was noted that the Azerbaijani authorities undertook to prepare a draft law on the protection of persons, to identify corruption. The draft law is to be prepared within the framework of the National Plan to combat corruption for 2012-2015.

The main reason for the need to adopt this document is the danger of corruption for the state. Therefore it is necessary to protect individuals exposing corruption. In Romania, Slovenia, the UK and Luxembourg people exposing corruption are under the protection of the state.
In every state structures and private companies should operate specific departments or persons engaged in identification of the facts of corruption. Those who expose corruption and their family members should be under reliable protection of the state, Mammadov said.
