The bill (Reg.No.10500) suggests changing the size of the fixed agricultural tax rate.
In particular, in stead of unified tax rate which is 0,15 per cent of the standardized monetary value of one hectare of agricultural land which is stipulated by the current provision of paragraph 304.1 article 304 of the Tax Code of Ukraine it is suggested to leave the same tax rate in case "when total area of such land owned or used by agricultural producers or people related to the them by control relations does not exceed 100 hectares" and to fix the rate at 1.15 per cent in case "when total area of such land owned or used by agricultural producers or people related to the them by control relations exceeds 100 hectares".
The Committee decided to recommend the Parliament to reject the bill because it will increase tax pressure on domestic commodity producers of agricultural products.
