People in public life

One person, assembled from nine registers: parliament, local government, the courts, the commercial register, the declarations filed with the National Audit Office, and campaign donations. Each person has a single profile, however many posts they have held and however many lists they appear on.

The page opens with a search. Type a name, an institution or a municipality — or pick a group, role, party, province or court — and the list appears. The whole list can also be browsed at once, though searching narrows it faster.

The default scope includes company owners identified by name alone. Those records carry an explicit label, because the identity is a name match rather than a verified link; the scope can be narrowed to people in public office only.

The filters are by group (MPs, executive branch, municipal administration, magistrates, candidates, NGOs, business), by specific role, by party — including "ever affiliated with", which surfaces those who switched — by province, and by court or institution.

For people who have filed a declaration it shows declared net worth and the year of the latest filing; for those linked to companies, the number of companies and the value of public contracts those companies won. Those sums belong to the companies, not to the person, and are qualified wherever the link was established by name alone. The "with a declaration" share is not a measure of legal compliance: the register covers only the offices listed in art. 6 of the anti-corruption act, while the denominator here includes people who never held one.
