At present the problem of corruption in government agencies, has become very relevant in our country, abuse of power and authority, disregard the legitimate interests of society and the state in order to benefit and property crimes of corruption schemes and artifices become criminalized. The definition of the crime of corruption includes such features as crime, public danger and wrongfulness. It should be noted that the social danger of corruption crimes is illegal encroachment on material enrichment. Wrongfulness of corruption offenses is in violation of the prohibition established by applicable law. Corruption crimes occur in almost all spheres of state activity and causing serious damage to the economy and well-being of our country.

The Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On Combating Corruption", provides the following definition of corruption offenses - corruption is understood not as a statutory enactment directly or indirectly property benefits and advantages of persons who perform public functions, as well as persons equated to them, using their official powers and related opportunities or otherwise use their powers to obtain property benefit, as well as bribery of such persons by providing them with unlawful physical and legal persons mentioned benefits and advantages [1].

Under current law the fight against corruption should be based on the following principles:

• Improving the structure of the state apparatus;

• The equality of all citizens before the law and the courts;

• Improving human resource management and procedures addressing issues affecting the rights and legitimate interests of individuals and legal entities;

• Provide a clear legal regulation of public bodies;

• Protecting the rights and legitimate interests of individuals and legal entities;

• Rule of law and transparency;

• Protecting the rights and legitimate interests of individuals and legal entities;

• State regulation and public control of public authorities;

• Protecting the rights and legitimate interests of the socio-economic, political, legal, organizational and management systems of the state, etc.

Our President N.A. Nazarbayev repeatedly touched on the problems of corruption related to inspections of business entities and talked about strengthening the responsibility for unwarranted interference in the private business.

On the initiative of our President N.A. Nazarbayev, in August of this year, the powers of the Financial Police were abolished and transferred to the new agency under the Ministry of Finance. [2]

It should be noted that the removal of administrative barriers to business, as well as strengthening social and political monitoring of the corruption situation would effectively solve many economic problems associated with administrative resources. Today the question detects, prevent corruption offenses and bring those perpetrators to justice within its competence is carried out on the following levels of government:

1. The bodies of internal affairs;

2. Customs Service;

3. The financial police;

4. Revenue Service;

5. The military police;

6. Border Service of the National Security Committee of the Republic of Kazakhstan;

7. Prosecutor's Office;

8. National Security Committee.

Corruption offenses, with all the elements of a criminal offense are socially dangerous and is encroaching on protected by criminal law public relations.

In accordance with the Criminal Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan, corruption and other crimes against the interests of the state and public administration, include:

1. Crimes related to abuse of power or official authority;

2. The offenses related to misappropriation of official;

3. Offenses related to the abuse of power;

4. Crimes related to illegal participation in entrepreneurial activity;

5. Crimes associated with obtaining bribes;

6. Offenses related to obstruction of legitimate business activity;

7. Offenses relating to bribery;

8. Offenses mediation in bribery;

9. Offenses related to forgery;

10. Offenses relating to the failure to act in the service;

11. Offenses relating to negligence[3].

Also it should be noted that, in practice, a large share of corruption crimes account for crimes committed in the implementation of government programs, it is related in most cases with insufficient control over the use and expenditure of budgetary funds, which enables government clerks illegal material enriched at the expense of the state funds allocated for the implementation of one or another government program[4].

The weakest link in the public sphere of activity, which are subject to corruption more than others, according to experts, are the following: the scope of public services, government procurement, investment and privatization processes, permits and licensing system, appointments to senior positions and getting a job in the public service, the redistribution of budget resources and land, tax collection, the activities of local governments. Currently, corruption infests our economy and is a major cause feelings of social insecurity among the people, undermining the sense of social stability, depriving society of confidence in a happy future.

Designed Party "NurOtan" project on anti-corruption programs 2015-2025 years, today presented to the broad public discussion, corresponding to the present situation in the country and the recent events taking place in the field of public bodies, we believe this program highly relevant and appropriate to the achievement of efficiency combating corruption crimes. The program is aimed at developing each member of our society anti-corruption and legal culture, in order to eradicate corruption in public sector management by reducing the motivations and preconditions for corruption[5].
