The Verkhovna Rada will consider in the second reading the draft law on the reintegration of the temporarily occupied areas of the Donbas №7163 next week (19-22 December), after the adoption of the budget for 2018. This was at a meeting of the conciliatory Council of Parliament on Monday, 4 December, said the speaker of Parliament Andriy Parubiy, the correspondent LIGA.net.

“After consultations, including with diplomats, it is recommended to consider the bill No. 7163 next week and may start work,” he said.

Parubiy noted that the bill received about 700 edits and, thus, its consideration may take all day.

“There is a recommendation to address it in a calm, but not before budget setting,” said the speaker.

Next plenary week will begin on 19 December 2017. This week, namely on Thursday, December 7, the deputies plan to consider the draft budget for 2018 No.7000 and related bills.
