The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine adopted in the second reading and in general a draft law that reforms the system of state supervision in the field of economic activity. This was reported by UNN with reference to the press service of the Ukrainian parliament.
Details
The document is aimed at improving state control in the field of economic activity, increasing the transparency of regulatory procedures, and adapting Ukrainian legislation to European standards. The adopted law provides for the unification of procedures for state supervision (control) measures, the elimination of inefficient and overly burdensome norms contained in the current law of Ukraine "On the Basic Principles of State Supervision (Control) in the Field of Economic Activity", as well as the creation of more predictable and fair conditions for doing business
It is noted that the document, in particular, introduces a risk-oriented approach to inspections, in which the state focuses primarily on enterprises whose activities are associated with increased risks to human life and health or safety, instead of conducting mass formal inspections. In addition, the document unifies the rules for conducting inspections for all regulatory bodies.
The Rada emphasized that the implementation of the law will ensure transparency and clarity of state inspections for businesses: enterprises will be less distracted by formal inspections, and unified procedures will reduce corruption risks. At the same time, the state will be able to focus resources on enterprises with increased risks to human safety and health, which will contribute to more effective consumer protection.
This law is one of the priorities for fulfilling Ukraine's international legal obligations within the framework of the European Union's financial support instrument, the Ukraine Facility. Its adoption is a necessary step in the implementation of the Ukraine Plan and in the performance of the functions of the National Coordinator of the Ukraine Facility instrument
