Andrii Parubii,
the Chairperson of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine opens the morning session.
MPs read out their statements,
proposals, declarations.
Bill No.6517 on additional trade preferences for
goods with Ukrainian origin is under consideration.
Bill No.6517 on
appeal to the European Parliament for granting extra trade preferences for
Ukraine-originated goods has been adopted. The unabridged list of the goods is
meant to be in concordance with the European Commission’s version.
The draft bill
No.3579 to reinforce guarantees for children protection has been accepted on
the first reading. The bill aims to amend the law on the national security by
introducing a legal wording that children protection has climbed atop of
Ukraine’s national interests. It is also supposed to recognize it legally that
the rise in threats to life and health of the civilian population, including
children, over the current warfare and civic clashes, has proven to be apparently
one of the gravest dangers to the national interests and Ukraine’s security. In
addition, it is also proposed to complement the above law with few alterations
to provide for some extra child care and children’s rights fruition.
The presiding officer
closed the morning meeting.
