Draft Law on Changing the Deadline for the VLK for Persons with Limited Fitness: The Verkhovna Rada Explains What Awaits Those Who Fail to Pass by February 4
Kyiv • UNN
The Verkhovna Rada is preparing a bill to extend the deadline for the partially fit to June 5. Those who do not make it by February 4, before the law is passed, will not be subject to administrative liability.
The transitional provisions to the draft law on the extension of the period of the military qualification commission until June 5 for persons liable for military service who have the status of limited fitness will state that the time before the adoption of the law is considered as such that it allows them not to be subject to administrative liability. This was reported to UNN by Iryna Friz, a member of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security, Defense and Intelligence.
Freese commented on the situation regarding the need for military personnel who had the status of "limited fitness" until February 4, given that the draft law proposing to extend this deadline to June 5 is only planned to be registered in the Verkhovna Rada today.
"The transitional provisions of the draft law on the extension of the deadlines will state that this time before the adoption of the draft law is considered as such that it allows not to be subject to administrative liability. It will relieve one of responsibility," Freese said.
According to her, this way there will be no grounds for imposing an administrative fine.
If the parliament is quick and approves everything by mid-February, then in fact, there will be a maximum of two weeks with the signing, which will be "walked" in time, but they will be entered as not being grounds for imposing an administrative fine
