Press Release: OLAF publishes Annual Activity Report

Embezzlement in health projects in Uganda, evasion of anti-dumping duties for silicon metal from China, an agent in a Commission delegation allegedly asking for bribes in exchange for attributing contracts: these were only three examples demonstrating the large variety of cases in which the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) intervened in 2008. On 9 July, 2009, in Brussels OLAF presented its new Annual Activity Report which illustrates its work inside and outside the EU in the form of numerous case studies and statistical tables. During 2008 OLAF opened 204 new cases.
