The Verkhovna Rada adopted as a basis the draft law on changing the rent for the use of radio frequency spectrum

The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine supported as a basis the draft law No. 10423, which provides for the abolition of all upward and downward coefficients applied to the rates of rent for the use of radio frequency resources of Ukraine. This was reported by UNN with reference to a statement by MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak .

Details

According to the MP, the bill was supported by 293 MPs. 

According to the draft law, it is planned to cancel all upward and downward coefficients applied to the rates of rent for the use of radio frequency resources of Ukraine.

It is also envisaged to add to the list of rent payers business entities that are granted the right to use the radio frequency resource of Ukraine on the basis of a license for the use of radio frequency spectrum and an extract from the register of radio frequency assignments of general users.

The regulatory authorities will provide the relevant authorities with information on non-payment or partial payment of rent for the use of the radio frequency resource of Ukraine within three months, instead of six, as it is now.

In addition, the draft law provides for the elimination of the provision according to which the Cabinet of Ministers approved the methodology for calculating the rates of rent for the use of radio frequency spectrum.
