According to the bill, it will be stipulated that liability for intentional inclusion of deliberately false information in the declaration arises if such information differs from reliable information by an amount from 750 to 2,500 subsistence minimums, i.e. from UAH 2.27 million to UAH 7.57 million.
Currently, it is envisaged that liability for intentional inclusion of deliberately false information in the declaration arises if the amounts differ from UAH 1 million 514 thousand to UAH 6 million 56 thousand.

Amendments are also envisaged, according to which liability for illegal enrichment arises in the event of the acquisition of assets, the value of which exceeds its legal income by more than 2,750 subsistence minimums, i.e. by UAH 8 million 327 thousand.
