The Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Dmytro Razumkov opened today’s sitting of the commission.

The speaker then noted that the week to be is rich in topical issues requiring an immediate viewing – such as the government’s action programme, the legislative work plan and so forth.

The politician also reminded that last week there was registered and would be considered the draft of legislation on democracy through an all-Ukrainian referendum under the No.3612. "The legislative draft was initiated by the President and designated as urgent. I hence think that on Tuesday we will view reducing the deadlines, and on Thursday we’ll probably move to considering it on the first reading," he then stated.

Among other important bills of the week, the speaker named to be the initiative to assist the creative industries, personnel issues and the revised action programme of the ministers.

Dmytro Razumkov then asked MPs to express their views on Friday's "Ask the Government” hour and to decide between two options - the finance minister or the education minister to be heared.
