Asset disclosure for members of parliament, ministers, state secretaries and senior officials has long been practiced, in that their public income has to be published. Still, disclosure of private, financial and business interests is considered a private matter, and therefore data on such assets and interests is not available.(p. 7 (Source:  EUROPEAN. COMMISSION. Brussels3.2.2014. COM(201438 final. REPORT FROM THE COMMISSION TO THE COUNCIL AND THE EUROPEAN. PARLIAMENT. EU ANTI-CORRUPTION REPORT (ANNEX 19 Netherlands)).

Comment

Yes but only on their public income, whereas disclosure of private, financial and business interests is considered a private matter
