I received the following
notice recently. SPD
The ABA-UNDP International
Legal Resource Center (ILRC) has received a
request from UNDP/Viet Nam for a senior expert to conduct policy research on “Liability of Legal
Entities: A study of international practices and applications for Viet Nam.” In order to analytically
support the on-going process on amendment of the Penal Code, UNDP has
commissioned this research study on international experiences using a
comparative approach with emphasis on institutional and legislative analysis.
The study will help identify good practices and lessons for Viet Nam to
consider in its review of criminalization of corruption acts to supplement
and/or revise in the amendment of the Penal Code, and to narrow the identified
gap between Viet Nam’s AC legislation and the UNCAC.
· to identify and analyze a
set of Penal Codes that cover such as fraud, corruption and bribery committed
by legal entities in a number of countries, as well as the institutional and
legal environments where those Penal Codes take effect;
· to highlight successful
and/or failing attributors to enforcing criminalization of liability of legal
entities, and opportunities and/or challenges to the enforcement;
· to identify what measures
are successfully implemented and the reasons for this implementation; and
· facilitate debates about
what Viet Nam can learn from other countries when amending its Penal Code and
on what conditions such amendments if any to include ‘Liability of Legal
Entities’ in the legislation will work in the country when the revised Penal
Code takes effect.
We would be most
appreciative if you would review and determine whether
you, anyone you know or any organization with which you are affiliated may have
any knowledge of experts who might be good candidates. Serious candidates please
contact me for further information and application requirements by March 6, 2014!
