"Yesterday, we voted in the first reading on draft law No. 10449 on military service, mobilization and registration. Everyone has questions to it. We will work on them in the committee before the second reading," Arakhamia said.
Thus, he listed the issues that are already in the works:
- As for people with disabilities and those who care for them, we will leave everything in the wording of the current legislation.
- Let's reconsider the approach to graduate students. There is no final decision yet, we will look for a compromise.
- The rules on blocking personal accounts of citizens are definitely unacceptable. I do not see anyone in the Rada who would support this.
"These are issues that are already in the works. We are also working in an inter-factional working group on other points of the draft law. We have to balance the interests of the military command, business and citizens. It's not an easy task, we will have a lot of work to do," he said.
