Integrity regulations for judges, prosecutors, and investigators began to function starting from 2020. During this period, legislative changes expanded the scope of integrity checks for officials, and mechanisms for integrity verification during the advancement of officials were introduced.

Yeprem Karapetyan, Head of the Anti-Corruption Policy Development and Monitoring Department of the Ministry of Justice, noted in a conversation with Iravaban.net that since 2023, mechanisms for ongoing integrity studies have been implemented, and currently integrity studies are being conducted for persons applying for positions, persons advancing in positions, as well as all current officials.

Karapetyan mentions that as a result of the 2024 legislative changes, the integrity study process itself has been improved, and now positive and negative conclusions are provided by the CPC (Corruption Prevention Commission), and the points on which this procedure should operate have also been clarified.
