Background: In June 2011, in Lisbon, the EUROSAI Governing Board set up a Task Force on Audit & Ethics (TFA&E), aimed at promoting ethical conduct and integrity, both in Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) and in public organisations. From 2011 until 2021, the TFA&E carried out multiple initiatives under the leadership of SAI Portugal, receiving internal and external recognition for influencing progress in the ethics management and the integrity audit in European SAIs. In 2021, having fulfilled the tasks included in its mandate, the TFA&E proposed to the EUROSAI XI Congress to close the activity of the Task Force, while at the same time keeping the Audit & Ethics subject as a topic in the Organisation’s agenda. To that end, the Congress established a «EUROSAI Network for Ethics», in charge of managing an on-line permanent platform to keep SAIs informed and collaborate in the topics of SAIs’ ethics management, SAIs’ integrity awareness raising, ethics related audit initiatives and their anti-corruption role.

Membership: The N.ET is chaired by the SAI of Croatia  with the support of the SAI of Portugal (Vice-chair) and is open to all EUROSAI members.

Objectives:  In accordance with the EUROSAI mission and vision, objectives and principles, the EUROSAI Network for Ethics intends to contribute to EUROSAI community by:

• promoting the theoretical and practical study of the problems and matters relating to SAIs’ ethics management and SAIs’ integrity awareness raising, ethics related audit initiatives, and related disciplines,
• collaborating in the exchange of techniques and knowledge considered to be of interest of the EUROSAI members, especially in the area of SAIs’ ethics management and SAIs’ integrity awareness raising, ethics related audit initiatives and other related initiatives,
• promoting and facilitating the exchange of information and documentation among EUROSAI members in relation to SAIs’ ethics management and SAIs’ integrity awareness raising, ethics related audit initiatives and other related initiatives,
