A translation from Vedomosti:

Putin has created a special department to combat corruption in the presidential administration. This, probably, can be considered as a tacit acknowledgment of the fact that the former actions failed in this regard, and the head of the state is trying to take the lead. Respective council under the President worked without fixed tenure. His aide Shkolov and his subordinates, overwhelmed with other work, are responsible for anti-corruption checks of all the branches and levels of the government.

Creating a body with high apparatus status and broad range of powers is a necessary step for the state, where law enforcement agencies are infected with corruption. Putin’s approval of the new agency provision is reminiscent of the international conventions on the fight against corruption and the OECD guidelines, requiring to create independent bodies capable to implement the first people’s will to win over the beneficiaries of informal public services.
