The Verkhovna Rada adopted a package of draft laws necessary to fulfill Ukraine's international obligations under the Ukraine Facility program and agreements with the IMF. Prime Minister Serhii Koretsky announced this in Telegram, stressing that the adopted decisions open the way to receiving the next part of international financial assistance.
What exactly did the deputies decide?
In general, the parliament supported laws that simplify the administration of value added tax, improve banking procedures and introduce simplified bankruptcy procedures for small and micro businesses.
Separately, in the first reading, deputies supported two draft laws from the SEPA package - documents required for Ukraine to join the Single Euro Payments Area. According to Koretskyi, this will make it possible to make international transfers faster and cheaper for citizens and businesses in the future.
The prime minister thanked the people's deputies for supporting the initiatives and noted that the government closely cooperates with the parliament: all ministers are involved in the work of specialized committees and parliamentary groups. He reminded that earlier the Verkhovna Rada had passed a number of draft laws within two days, to which financial aid in the amount of 4.26 billion euros from the European Union was tied.
