The bill (Reg. No. 2336) suggests supplementing the list of reasons for restrictions when engaging in militia. Particularly, the person convicted of the crime by the court verdict that came into force, and in regard to whom the decision was taken to dismiss criminal proceedings for non- rehabilitating reasons and against whom an administrative fine was levied for corruption offenses in the last year, cannot be engaged in militia.  

Having analyzed the bill, Committee members noted that its adoption shall promote refinement of staff assistance of internal bodies and effectiveness of activities of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
