Assessment of the institutions’ performance The performance of three institutions was evaluated on a scale of 1 to 5 (with five being the highest score): The Ministry of Interior (MUP), polling boards and prosecutors. Nearly half of the respondents (47%) were satisfied with the work of the MUP (very good and excellent scores), while 13% of the respondents expressed dissatisfaction by giving them ones or twos for their work. Findings almost identical to those for trust were obtained in the case of polling boards: satisfaction surpasses dissatisfaction by far since 57% of citizens said they were satisfied with the work of polling boards versus 11% of citizens who were not. Finally, 32% of respondents were satisfied with the prosecution's work, whereas one quarter of the respondents were not. Unlike questions of trust in institutions, the performance assessment included a relatively high percentage of people who did not know how or were unable to assess their performance, especially in the case of prosecutors where nearly one in four persons had no attitude or was unaware of their work.
