Abstract

This chapter discusses the evolution that is taking place in Italy with regard to compliance systems pursuant to Legislative Decree 231. In particular, it explores the application of compliance with Decree 231 as an accreditation system in various Italian regions through a comparative assessment of the different experiences that are currently in progress. A boost to this evolution took place in 2012 with the adoption of Law 190, the so-called anti-corruption law, which effectively extends the obligation of compliance with Decree 231 to all Italian public administrations, including subsidiaries. In the context of our main subject of analysis, this means extending its application not only to the VET sector but also to all education sectors, from primary schools to universities. Hence, we carried out an additional investigation into the application of the anti-corruption law in 52 universities; our conclusions show that Italy has yet to develop a culture of compliance, and thence a system of rules that can serve as an important tool in the support of ethical behaviour.
