Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatseniuk has urged the Verkhovna Rada to promptly consider 44 bills tabled in parliament, as without their adoption it will be impossible to approve the state budget for 2015.
“We tabled 44 legislative acts and we’re asking to put them on the agenda so we can work on them… The budget can be adopted only when you back all previous legislative initiatives,” the premier said while delivering a speech in parliament on Tuesday.
He said that the budget “is built on a new tax base, on new budgetary relations, legalization of shadow income, un-shadowing of businesses and taxation of big businesses, as well as changing the approach to social payments.”
As reported, the Ukraine government early on Dec. 23 morning tabled in parliament a draft state budget for 2015 consisting of amendments to Tax, Budget and Customs Codes.
