Against the backdrop of a new corruption scandal, the Verkhovna Rada law enforcement committee blocked anti-corruption bills. MP Zheleznyak reported this.
The formal reason was “loss of relevance.” These were initiatives related to reform of the State Bureau of Investigations (DBR), the competition for the prosecutor general position, repeal of the “Lozovyi amendments,” strengthening NABU and SAP, and suspension of limitation periods in corruption cases.
According to Yaroslav Zheleznyak, the decision was made after a letter from MPs Maksym Buzhanskyi and Olha Savchenko. In practice, this means Parliament will not be able to consider these bills on the floor.
