Restoration of Asset Declaration

Tags:

Despite the fact that Members of Parliament and public officials had not submitted declarations for an extended period, Parliament initially extended the suspension of declaration transparency for another year.

The Center for Combating Corruption emphasized that declarations would be accessible only with the consent of the declarant. By adopting this provision, MPs disregarded the position of the European Union, a statement by G7 ambassadors, the recommendation of the European Parliament’s rapporteur Michael Gahler, and—most importantly—the views of 91.7% of Ukrainians who supported open declarations.

Military serviceman Oleksandr Yabchanka submitted a petition to the President demanding a veto of the law. The petition gathered over 83,000 signatures in a single day, setting a record. Civil society organizations also called on the President to veto the law, including the Center for Policy and Legal Reform and Bihus.Info.

Ultimately, the President vetoed the law, and Parliament amended it accordingly, restoring public access to declarations.

The only MP who voted against the final decision was Dmytro Mykysha from the “Servant of the People” faction.
