The Secretariat of the Committee said that the author of the draft law Ivan Rybak, who was invited to take part in the Committee meeting, noted that the draft law No. 2469 he had offered ensures proper socioeconomic development of the population centers geographically located in the mountain areas but having no any "mountain" status, and to guarantee the protection of constitutional rights, in particular, the rights of children to education. At the same time, chairperson of the subcommittee for local executive bodies and territorial structure Mykola Fedoruk drew attention of the participants to the position of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Budget Affairs, which noted that the draft law had certain impact on the indicators of budgets (will increase the expenditures of state and local budgets).
