The Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources of Ukraine approved a new
Order of activity of the Commission that approves issuing permits for the
subsurface use, which makes it impossible to delay the process of considering
documents and enables protecting entrepreneurs from ungrounded denials. Whereas,
the community obtains an opportunity to monitor the work of the Commission.
The officials of the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources explain
that under the new rules, the Commission shall be summoned twice a month, and
the agenda shall be adopted three working days before the meeting with
obligatory publishing on the Ministry's website – respectively, the civil society
gets an access to the issues that are to be considered. The meeting’s minutes
shall also be posted on the official website.
The decision on the approval by the Ministry of Environment and Natural
Resources a permit on subsoil use will be made only if all members of the
Commission vote in favour of it. The new procedure also envisages that in case
a package is returned for revision, the Commission's decision shall contain
reasoned arguments.
