Ukraine successfully relaunches new online income register - official

KIEV (Reuters) - Ukraine has successfully relaunched a new online income declaration system, a spokesman for the state anti-graft agency said on Thursday - a key condition for the disbursement of a long-delayed tranche of International Monetary Fund loans.

The system, which is meant to increase transparency by making the revenue and property holdings of state officials open to public scrutiny, was meant to go online earlier this month, but anti-corruption watchdogs said it lacked the security paperwork to operate effectively.
