personnel of mining enterprises and the closed down or stand-by mining
enterprises; pensioners who have worked on coal mining (conversion) or coal
producer enterprises; disabled and family members of workers who died at coal
mining (conversion) enterprises will have the right to compensation of public
utilities instead of receiving free coal for domestic needs. Compensation shall

Following
the results of discussion, the Committee took the decision to recommend the
Parliament to adopt the bill, registered under No. 2158, as a basis and as such
that suggests a clearer determination of the subject of regulation. Thereat,
the provisions of the analogous bill registered under No. 2158-1 (on amendments
to articles 43 and 48 of the Mining Law of Ukraine) should be considered while
preparing the bill for the second reading.
