At the Committee’s meeting on April 16, it was mentioned that the bill (Reg. No. 4516) suggests supplement article 50-1 of the Law “On the Prosecutor’s Office”, articles 5, 9 of the Law “On pensions for persons discharged from military service, and some others”, article 15 of the Law “On social and legal protection of servicemen and their families”, articles 136, 138, 139 of the Law “On the Judicial System and Status of Judges” with provisions on depriving the rights of dismissed officials (civil servants), who during November, 2013 – February, 2014 participated in maintenance of public order, fulfillment of other duties and investigating crimes against participants of protest movement in Ukraine and other mass events during this period, in order to prevent officials (civil servants) from using the right to receive special pensions and one-time financial assistance.

Moreover, it is suggested to supplement the list of reasons for terminating judge’s resignation (as a result of which monthly lifetime financial allowance is not paid) with a fact of “breaking the oath”.
