During the meeting of the Committee, it was mentioned that the President of Ukraine deems it unacceptable to entitle officials of village and township councils execute notarial actions regarding legacy, as it contradicts the norms of the Civil and Land Code, the laws “On Notary”, “On Local Self-government in Ukraine” and other. The President believes that abolishing mandatory normative monetary evaluation of land plots while determining the amount of state duty in the process of inheritance, will lead to decreasing of the State Budget revenues. He upholds the suggestion regarding excluding certain provisions of the Law “On the State Property Fund of Ukraine” and the Law "On Amending Several Laws of Ukraine on Privatization Regarding Implementation of Provisions of the State Privatization Program 2011 - 2014" pertaining to the peculiarities of property evaluation and goals of taxation.

By results of consideration, it was decided to recommend that the Parliament should entrust the Committee on Judicial Policy to elaborate the Law "To amend several legislative acts of Ukraine regarding legacy registration", considering proposals of the President of Ukraine and other subjects of legislative initiative and re-submit it to the consideration of the Verkhovna Rada.

The respective bill was registered under No. 0985.
