The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has adopted a number of decisions that will help quickly meet the needs of the front.
In particular, the following decisions were made:
1) military units will be able to directly purchase used pickup trucks, ATVs, buggies, and motorcycles – without unnecessary bureaucracy. The cost will be determined by expert assessment or market data. This will allow for the prompt renewal of equipment that wears out on the front line;
2) property lost or worn out in battles will be written off in a simplified manner. If it is up to UAH 1.7 million, the process will be faster so that units can receive a replacement without delay;
3) families of defenders who died in captivity will receive UAH 15 million in assistance. The deadline for applying for a one-time benefit for the wounded or those who lost their ability to work after service has also been extended to one year;
4) The Ministry of Defense initiated legislative changes to postpone the publication of military declarations for a year after the end of martial law so that the enemy could not use this data.
The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine is reforming the system of business inspections. The draft Law of Ukraine on the Basic Principles of State Supervision (Control) (Registration No. 5837) was considered.
The draft Law of Ukraine on the Basic Principles of State Supervision (Control) defines the legal and organizational principles of state supervision (control), the basic principles and procedure for its implementation, the powers of state supervision (control) bodies, the responsibility of their officials, as well as the rights, obligations and responsibilities of business entities during the implementation of state supervision (control).
This Law establishes:
- definition of terms, in particular: audit and auditee, personal electronic account, location and rating of business entities, authorized person of a business entity;
- liability of a business entity for unjustified failure to conduct an inspection, or obstructing its conduct in another way, and for failure to comply with the legal requirements of the state supervision (control) body and its officials and employees;
- powers of a specially authorized body for state supervision (control);
- expanding the rights and obligations of business entities, as well as providing support to such entities;
- introduction of an audit of the state of operations of business entities.
At the same time, the Law establishes the obligation of state supervision (control) bodies to record the process of conducting planned or unplanned events and enshrines the right of business entities to independently decide whether to record such a process or individual actions during control.
Following the discussion, the People's Deputies of Ukraine - members of the Committee decided to recommend to the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine to adopt the draft Law of Ukraine on the Basic Principles of State Supervision (Control) in the second reading and as a whole as a Law.
The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has adopted the first package of decisions aimed at supporting frontline territories.
The project involves developing a comprehensive program that will cover 238 communities in 10 regions. The program covers 6.6 million Ukrainians, including 3.7 million from vulnerable groups.
The program is based on five key priorities:
1) affordable housing. Under the "eOselia" program, the state compensates 70% of the first mortgage payment for internally displaced persons and residents of frontline areas, as well as 70% of loan payments in the first year. An additional UAH 40,000 is provided to pay all fees related to the registration of a mortgage;
2) security. Strengthening the protection of communities and critical infrastructure. Construction of shelters and protective structures in schools and kindergartens, cultural institutions and public spaces;
3) support for people. UAH 19,400 is allocated for solid fuel to each household, 100 kW of electricity per person is compensated each month, and payment for socially useful works has been increased by 33%;
4) business support. Critical enterprises will be able to reserve up to 100% of military-duty employees. Farmers will receive a subsidy of UAH 1,000 per hectare in combat zones. Grants for gardens and greenhouses of up to UAH 400,000/hectare with compensation of up to 80% of costs are also provided;
5) healthcare. Medical facilities in rural and remote communities will receive a 20% increase for primary care. Payment rates for emergency medical care will also increase.
At the same time, the Government is working on a second package of support for frontline regions. As the Prime Minister noted, it will significantly expand opportunities for living and working in frontline communities.
The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has registered draft law in the Verkhovna Rada No. 13633 “On Amendments to the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses to Strengthen Liability for Violation of the Requirements of a Special Legal Regime – Martial Law.”
The document is aimed at ensuring public order during martial law and expanding the powers of the police to monitor compliance with its rules.
The draft law provides for the addition of a new Article 210-2 to the Code of Administrative Offenses, which establishes administrative liability for:
- violation of the rules of entry or stay in settlements where a general mandatory evacuation is being carried out, without special passes or certificates;
- curfew violation - being in public places during prohibited hours without passes or identification.
Amendments to Article 262 of the Code of Administrative Offenses provide police authorities with the right to conduct administrative detention of persons who violate the requirements of martial law.
If the law is adopted, citizens and officials will bear stricter administrative responsibility for ignoring the established rules.
The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine adopted a resolution prepared by the Ministry of Justice, which approved the Regulations on the Unified Register of Powers of Attorney. The document was developed to regulate the procedure for maintaining and using the Unified Register of Powers of Attorney, which is a component of the Unified State Electronic System of e-notary.
The adopted resolution defines the organizational and procedural principles for the functioning of the Unified Register of Powers of Attorney, in particular:
- procedure for registering powers of attorney, their duplicates and termination of their validity in the Register;
- mechanism for the registrar to verify the validity of powers of attorney and their duplicates;
- rules for forming registration extracts and extracts from this Register;
- procedure for providing information from the Register by registrars and access to it by users.
In addition, the Ministry of Justice is designated as the holder of the Register, which takes organizational measures related to ensuring the maintenance and functioning of the Register and provides its regulatory and legal support.
The notary, as a registrar, enters information about powers of attorney and their duplicates into the e-Notary System, and also uploads their scanned copies.
This provides the opportunity for any interested person to check the notarial document by scanning the QR code. After scanning on an electronic device through the mobile application of the "Diia" Portal, information will be displayed about the presence or absence of the corresponding document in the e-Notary System.
If there is consent from at least one person specified in the notarial document, it will be possible to obtain an electronic copy of it.
