The legislative body on October 20 took cognizance of the resignation from the post of vice director of the National Anticorruption Center tendered by Cristina Tarna, IPN reports.

By a majority of votes of the attending MPs, the draft decision on the ending of her term in office was adopted. The decision takes effects when it is adopted.

Cristina Tarna was named vice director of the NAC in November 2013.

“I consider the reforms announced and launched in the anticorruption sector substantially undermine the policies promoted with the expertise of the NAC and with my involvement during the last few years. I refer to a number of laws and policies that only started to be implemented. In the created situation, when the views I share are not compatible with the announced views, I think there is no use keeping the post. I want to refute the speculations about my interest in running for other public posts (National Integrity Authority, Criminal Assets Recovery Agency) or in becoming involved in politics. For now, my professional intentions are only to return to the activity of national and international consultancy in the fields of integrity and anticorruption,” Cristina Tarna wrote in a posting on a social networking site after she announced her resignation.
