TRANSPARENCY AS A CURE FOR CORRUPTION
• Public Administration is, by definition, PUBLIC
• P.A. manages public services and spends public money
• Documents produced by PA are public and must be made available to
everyone
• Corruption and squandering are costly for the community
• Transparency is the cure for corruption
• Institutional websites of PA must be transparent and contain all useful
information for the citizens, by making available both public data and
services

5. Benefits for citizens

6. Benefits for Public Administration
• Without transparency of the documents:
• Collective control is not possible
• So, participation can’t exist

complaints
• P.A. collaborates with the citizens in order to improve services
• Transparency
• facilitates the internal organizatonal wellbeing of the employees
• Reduces conflict
• is a valid solution against mobbing

7. THE METHODOLOGY: PARTICIPATION
The methodology is participation
1) We launch a poll on facebook: “What website would
you like to analyze?”
2) We collect the participations and choose the site that
in that moment is the most interesting
3) We open a specific event in the section of the group
dedicated to events
The participation increase as soon as the event is
opened
- integration: citizens, compass of transparency and
public administration

8. Intregration between….
Citizens
The Compass of Transparency
Public Administrations

9. Who?
Citiizens
The Compass of Transparency
Administration

10. The protagonists: the citizens
Citizen volunteers
The citizens are the users of public services and thus the best
evaluators
Not only experts : any average citizen can make significant
contributions and suggestions

11. Joint Transparency:
Anyone can join from North to South
-the principle is of joint trasparency
-public administration belongs to all of us
- responsible spending in the South is an advantage for the
North as well
-the contribution of citizens living far from the chosen
administration avoids conditioning due to local interests
typical of small realities which in turn limits participation

12. The Compass of Transparency orientates us
Simplifies civic control
Informs citizens on rules and regulations concerning
transparency

13. An important instrument: : The Compass of Trasparency
The Compass validates our work through a standardized
system made available by the governement
The validation creates an objective and an autoritative
element on which to base our evaluation

14. After opening the event on facebook
●Check single indicators
●Examine regional legislation
●Verify accessibility
●Put together proposals , ideas, and
contributions which make up the final report

16. The first web site evaluated was of the City of Licata: the
Compass indicated 4 out of 43 – the citizens gave a seriously
insufficient evaluation

18. We check the structure of the site and
its contents through the various
emoticons of the compass
The Compass helps us by simplifying our actions.
It allows us to verify if the structure of the site
conforms to regulations, and if it contains
information and services.
It recalls the legal references and the page which
contains data and services in a simplified way.

19. For example , let us examine the transparency
regulations concerning the Sicilian region.
LEGGE 5 aprile 2011, n. 5.
Disposizioni per la trasparenza, la semplificazione,
l’efficienza,l’informatizzazione della pubblica
amministrazione …......e
Art. 12 Trasparenza e pubblicità degli atti
Comma 3
Tutti gli atti della pubblica amministrazione sono pubblici ed
assumono valore legale dal momento del loro inserimento nei siti
telematici degli enti, a tal fine opportunamente pubblicizzati.

20. The citizens make the evaluation more effective
with their contributions and their suggestions.
I would like a tree structure where the trunk
is transparency, the branches are the
minimum content and the fruits are the
various departments. The seeds are the
documents. (Calogero C.)
Observation taken from “Sicily event”

21. We would like a Glossary
Many terms or abbreviations used in the language of public
administration are not comprehensible to the average citizen.
Bureaucratic terminology such as the abbreviations used for
legislation for example D.P.Reg. or others for many user citizens
may mean nothing if there isn't anyone to explain them.
One citizen suggests the problem could be solved by the creation
of a glossary.
(Maurizio G.) (observation taken form “Sicily event”)

22. Attention: the publishing of documents
does not always mean transparency
A document can be publishd but difficolt to find.
In order to be transparent .....
the viewing of documents must be made easy
.

23. Accessibility assessment - 1
L'accessibilità, as defined by Italian laws and in particular
by L. 4/2004 and by the Italian e-Governement Code (CAD,
Codice dell'Amministrazione Digitale) is a fundamental
requirement for trasparency , since it makes up the
essential, constitutionally guaranteed foundation: that is,
allowing anyone –personal conditions and physical state
notwithstanding –equal access to the services provided and
to the information published, in the public interest (articolo
3 Italian Constitution, mentioned by art. 1, L.4/2004)
The accessibility assessment was performed according to
the general criteria defined by Law n. 4/2004 and by its
corollary regulations, according to the Official Guidelines
for Governement Web Sites, version 2011, and according to
other legal documents provided by the Public Function
Office (Dipartimento della Funzione Pubblica)

24. EVALUATION OF ACCESSIBILITY 2
The accessibility of the Sicilian Region website was
evaluated by making a distinction between infrastructure
accessibility and content accessibility.
By infrastructure accessibility we mean interface
accessibility of services provided or of relative functional
automatisms presented on internet and usually realized
using formal language which makes use of markers. (HTML,
XHTML etc.)
By content accessibility we mean the ability to access
documents made public through the infrastructure as
previously specified; documents which in conformity with
art. 8 commas 3 and 4 of CAD, the guedelines require to be
drawnup in the ISO 32000-1:2008 format. (a particular PDF
version)
Taken from the evaluation of the Sicilian Region website

25. EVALUATION OF ACCESSIBILITY 3
The result of the accessibility evaluation of the Sicilian
Region website was disappointing. Although
infrastructure accessibility presented some anomalies, all
in allthey were not serious, and can be quickly corrected
using a limited amount of resources. On the other hand,
the accessibility of public documents is seriously deficient
since:
●None of the public documents are in the open and
accessible format as prescribed by law 4/2004, of the CAD,
by the prescribed provisions and by the guidelines;
●All lthe deliberations of the Counciil are totally
inaccessible;
●The GURS is essentially inaccessible. Except for the fact
that the sanctions for similar violations have recently been
toughened up in the “decreto sviluppo 2.0”, since over
10% of the Italian special needs population lives in Sicily,
the situation must be urgently addressed. (Piero Draghi)

26. The observations and the proposals are included
in a final Report which, supplemented by the
contributions of all, is then formally sent to the
Administration, to Civit , to the Ispettorato
Funzione Pubblica
via email , fax, or certified registered mail

28. The traffic warden Traspar-Enza has
given a virtual and a real fine
Time has expired …
Your time is everyone's money
A lack of transparency creates difficulties for citizens.
The only thing to do is ….. to solve the problem with
the utmost urgency

29. What happens during the evaluation ?
The Administration is notified and when made aware of the non-
compliance takes steps to intervene.
The Administration ignores us until the press intervenes and is then
forced to justify itself.
The Administratin collaborates with us.

42. We citizens can do a lot!
It is our duty tp contribute
Transparency International Italia has launched a survey
among members and supporters and, to the question “Who
should lead the fight against corruption?” almost 30%
answered “the citizens”, followed by the Government (25%)
and trailing at a distance, the Judiciary (14%).(2012)

43. The comments of those responsible for
the Administrations.
Your appearance was like a blow to the back of the neck:
“this is all we need!” But your intentions werei mmediately
revealed and from being a potential disturbance you became
a precious supporter. Today, our website has made
undeniable progress. The credit is also yours”.
Giovanna Incorvaia pro-tempore Manager responsible for the
website of the City od Licata.
Following our suggestions the website of the Sicilian Region
set up an ad hoc work group.
