Partners recommend expediting the issuance of the local government law to enhance transparency and public oversight.

Partners for Transparency released its monthly report, "Corruption Report for June 2025," which documented 71 corruption incidents across various sectors, marking a slight decline of 41% compared to last May.

The report revealed a significant shift in the sectoral corruption map, with the local government sector returning to the top of the list of the most corrupt sectors for the first time this year, with a rate of 28.161 TP3T, followed by the supply sector with a rate of 25.351 TP3T, then the financial and banking sector with a rate of 22.531 TP3T, the education sector with a rate of 18.301 TP3T, and finally the health sector with a rate of 5.631 TP3T.

Cairo Governorate ranked first for the sixth consecutive month in terms of the number of recorded corruption incidents, with a rate of 15,491 TP3T, followed by Giza Governorate with 11,261 TP3T, and Sharqia Governorate with 8,451 TP3T. These three governorates accounted for more than a third of the total corruption incidents during the month.

The report noted the continuation of oversight activity, with security agencies conducting more than 18 inspection campaigns in the supply sector, 16 targeting money laundering and embezzlement, and eight campaigns against fictitious educational entities. The judiciary also issued several sentences of severe imprisonment and dismissal from office against officials in the postal, education, and agriculture sectors. Parliament also continued to exercise its oversight role by submitting briefing requests on health and financial issues.

 The report recommended expediting the issuance of a local government law to enhance transparency and public oversight, intensifying market oversight to combat commercial fraud, and activating digital analysis tools to combat money laundering. It also recommended expediting the issuance of a law to protect whistleblowers and expand community awareness campaigns about the dangers of corruption.
