The Bill (Reg. No.3310) envisages adoption of the National Program of Land Use and Protection which aims at the implementation of State policy in the field of reasonable use and protection of land, satisfaction of the demands of the population and economy in land resources, protection of soil from degradation, pollution and exhaustion.
However, according to the People´s Deputies, submittal of the Bill by a People´s Deputy contradict Article 116 of the Constitution of Ukraine and the Law "On the State Target-Oriented Programs", pursuant to which, only the Cabinet of Ministers is authorized to draft and bring forward the national programs.
Thus, the Committee on Agrarian Policy and Land Relations recommends that the Parliament rejects the Bill on the National Program of Land Use and Protection, and the Cabinet of Ministers drafts and brings forward a relevant Bill.
