The government canceled several outdated regulatory instruments in the sphere of competence of the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine.
The resolution of the CMU was developed in accordance with the recommendations of the IWG on deregulation. The work of the IWG is aimed at clearing the regulatory field in Ukraine of such permits, licenses, etc., which are no longer of practical importance, are not used or are used very limited.
Thanks to the document adopted today, Ukrainian entrepreneurs will no longer have to:
- issue control stamps for the distribution of copies of audiovisual works, phonograms, videograms, computer programs, databases.
These are holograms on CDs, without which the retail sale of discs was prohibited.
- receive a scientific research organisation’s opinion regarding the technical impossibility of neutralisation and disposal of harmful substances, production waste, and wastewater.
- obtain a conclusion that the goods used for the development of production and ensuring the consumption of biological fuels are not produced and have no analogues in Ukraine.
Also, by its decision, the Government transferred the authority to issue a certificate of a representative in intellectual property matters (patent attorney) to the National Intellectual Property Authority (previously, this authority belonged to the Ministry of Economy).
The IWG on deregulation is headed by First Deputy Prime Minister – Minister of Economy of Ukraine Yulia Svyrydenko and Deputy Prime Minister – Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov. The meetings are also attended by representatives of leading analytical centres, in particular the BRDO.
