Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has signed
a law on amendments to some legislative acts of Ukraine on #electronic_declaration by civil servants of their property, income, spending, financial
obligations in 2016, according to the presidential press service.
The president signed the law while meeting with representatives of the
commission to select members of the National Agency for Prevention of
Corruption.
The law is part of the so-called visa-free package Ukraine had to pass
for the European Union to decide on Ukrainian citizens' visa-free travels.
"The law is to become effective in 2016. Officials should submit
their declarations in 2016, and liability is also due in 2016. I'm signing this
law in your presence," Poroshenko said at the meeting.
All the laws and amendments passed as the visa-free package are
important to Ukraine and are aimed at fighting against corruption, he added.
Head of the European Union's Delegation to Ukraine Jan Tombinski, who
was also present at the meeting, said he welcomed the adoption of the law,
adding that European Commission experts had been involved in the finalization
of that law.
