(Vatican Radio) From July 2nd to 6th 2012, the Plenary Meeting
of Moneyval (the Council of Europe’s department responsible for the evaluation of
member states with respect to anti-money laundering systems) is taking place in Strasbourg.
The Holy See is taking part in this meeting with a delegation led by Monsignor Ettore
Balestrero, Under-Secretary for Relations with States.
The Report relating
to the Holy See and to Vatican City State was adopted Wednesday. According to usual
Moneyval procedure, in the near future an amended version of the Report, based upon
Wednesday's plenary session, will be forwarded to the Holy See for possible further
comment to be submitted within one month. The Report is expected to be published on
the Moneyval website.
