The Committee members noted that the draft
law No. 2318a aims to introduce real reflection of the principle of equality of
Constitutional Court judges despite the type of their activity in the past.
The
people's deputies noted that one of the guarantees to ensure independence of
judges enshrined in Section 1 of Article 126 of the Constitution of Ukraine, is
their provision with material and social protection (salary, pension, monthly
monetary assistance paid on permanent basis, etc.) at the expense of the state.
