Improving business environment in Ukraine is not a priority for HNEU

The Main Scientific and Expert Administration of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine (HNEU) recommended to send the Draft Law #4187 on Amendments to Certain Laws of Ukraine on improving state regulation of construction, which is developed to implement the Action Plan for the best practices of quality and effective regulation as reflected in the World Bank Group’s methodology of the Doing Business 2016 ranking, for revision.

Main HNEU observations concern the abolition of the registration procedure for declarations in construction. However, the HNEU didn’t take into account that a declaration is just a notification of the business entity to the state that he begins (or finished) to do something. Without any permitting elements. Therefore, it is illogical to apply the same regulation approaches to both permits and declarations.

The Better Regulation Delivery Office considers that observations contained in the above-mentioned conclusion are not correct and not well-reasoned. Our comments to the text of this conclusion are available here.
