The Bill (Reg. No. 3406) introduces amendments to a number of clauses of the Code of Administrative Legal Proceedings of Ukraine in order to legislatively regulate the issues concerning territorial competence of administrative cases related to acts of The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine (except of laws), the President of Ukraine and the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.
Thus, administrative court of appeal, territorial competence of which extends onto Kyiv, is considered as a first authority to scrutinize cases in which The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, the President of Ukraine or the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine act as a Party.
The Higher Administrative Court of Appeal will revise court decisions in such administrative cases under the procedure of appeal. Moreover, the administrative court of appeal as a court of first authority will also scrutinize the cases concerning early termination of authorities of a People´s Deputy of Ukraine in case of non-fulfillment of requirements concerning incompatibility.
