Paragraph 16
16. Notes with satisfaction that on 1 May 2017 the Europol’s management board adopted rules for the prevention and management of conflicts of interest in respect of its members, including in relation to their declarations of interests; notes with regret that Europol's approach has been to declare that there is no conflict of interest; notes with concern that the management board members have continued to publish declarations of absence of conflict of interest; calls for the management board members to publish their declarations of interests instead of declarations of absence of conflict of interest which will list their membership to any other organisations; stresses that it is not for the management board members to declare themselves out of conflict of interest; notes that management board members and alternate members have been invited to complete, sign and submit their respective declarations of interests together with their curricula vitae by 15 December 2017 for subsequent publication on the Europol’s website; welcomes the publication of the management board members' curricula vitae on the Europol´s website; calls on Europol to report back to the discharge authority if management board members did sohave actually published their declarations of interests by the set deadline;
