The Cooperation and Verification Mechanism (CVM) was set up at the accession of Bulgaria to the European Union in 2007. It was agreed that further work was needed in key areas to address shortcomings in judicial reform, the fight against corruption, and tackling organised crime. Since then CVM reports have charted the progress made by Bulgaria and have sought to help focus the efforts of the Bulgarian authorities through specific recommendations. The Commission's reports, and the conclusions of the Council of Ministers, have mapped developments in Bulgaria and made recommendations for the future. This report summarises the steps taken over the past year and provides recommendations for the next steps. It is the result of a careful process of analysis by the Commission, drawing on close cooperation with the Bulgarian authorities, civil society and other stakeholders. The Commission was also able to draw on the specific support of experts from the magistracy in other Member States to offer a practitioner's point of view. |
