President signs law on “white business club” - Hetmantsev
Kyiv • UNN
The President of Ukraine signed a law on the “white business club” that was criticized by experts and the business community. According to Hetmantsev, the law is aimed at fighting the shadow economy and corruption.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy has signed the law on the "white business club" adopted by the parliament, which has been repeatedly criticized by the business community and the expert community. This was announced by the Chairman of the Tax Committee of the Verkhovna Rada Danylo Hetmantsev, UNN reports .
"The President has signed the law on the White Business Club!", wrote Hetmantsev on his Telegram channel.
The Chairman of the Rada's Tax Committee continues to convince that this law will help fight shadow business and corruption. "Once again, I emphasize that the state and white business are absolute allies in the fight against shadow businessmen and corrupt officials. It is along this line of confrontation that we will effectively overcome the shadow economy and, most importantly, corruption together," he said.
Recall
The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine has passed a scandalous bill on the "white business club" by the head of the parliament's tax committee, Danylo Hetmantsev. The document was criticized by both Mr. Hetmantsev's colleagues in parliament and experts. Even legal opinions stated that it did not comply with Ukrainian law.
In comments to UNN, economic experts pointed out that the document violates the Constitution of Ukraine and creates discriminatory conditions in the business environment.
Analysts at the Union of Ukrainian Entrepreneurs also concluded that Hetmantsev's draft law contains discriminatory provisions and has corruption risks.
Business Ombudsman Roman Vashchuk also stated that the draft law on the "white business club" is discriminatory.
Add
Earlier , UNN described how social media reacted to Hetmantsev's initiative to create a "white business club." Ukrainians, in particular, believe that his bill is an instruction manual for milking a half-dead cow, and that the MP himself is a disaster for the Ukrainian economy.
