As was
mentioned at a meeting on November 25, 2015, the draft law (Reg. No. 1452) was
elaborated to decentralize authorities in the sphere of management of lands in
state ownership, today belonging to the central executive power body in charge
of land resources - the State Agency of Land Resources and its territorial
departments.
For instance, according to the effective the Land Code, the State Agency of
Land Resources and its territorial departments manage agricultural land in
state ownership for all purposes. However, the draft envisages that in their
territories regional state administrations transfer land plots from lands in
state ownership, excluding in cases determined in Section 8 of this Article
into ownership or use, within the boundaries of villages, towns and cities of
regional importance for all purposes and outside populated areas:
a) from agricultural land for all purposes;
b) for water industry;
c) for construction of facilities connected with servicing of residents of
territorial community of the district (schools, cultural institutions,
hospitals, enterprises, etc.), taking into account the requirements of Section
7 of this Article;
d) for private cottage construction.
