Deputies will be turned into button coders: Zelensky wants to pass 60 laws in two days
The Office of the President of Ukraine expects to vote about 60 bills in the first two days of the new Rada, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
This was reported by the online publication Capital, citing a source in Zelensky’s office.
According to the publication’s source, this is exactly the number of adopted laws that the leadership of the Presidential Office announced to Vladimir Zelensky during one of the recent meetings, and intends to keep this “promise.”
He could not name the list of bills, explaining that it does not yet exist and is currently being formed. The interlocutor also admitted that the OP has certain concerns about whether such a number of laws can actually be adopted.
“The bills were prepared by different people, some of them are frankly “raw”. In addition, none of them, for obvious reasons, went through the procedures provided for by the regulations; there are no conclusions from the scientific-expert department of the Verkhovna Rada on them,” the publication’s source said.
He also admitted that the OP does not exclude the open dissatisfaction of some deputies that the Office of the President completely excludes them from the legislative process.
“Many people there guess that they were taken to ‘press buttons,’ but few expect it to be demonstrated so cynically,” the source said.
Earlier, the presidential representative in the Verkhovna Rada, Ruslan Stefanchuk, said that in total the Servant of the People party would propose more than 300 legislative initiatives for consideration by the Verkhovna Rada.
Among the top-priority bills, he named the removal of parliamentary immunity and amendments to the rules of work of the Verkhovna Rada. In addition, Stefanchuk mentioned the law on presidential impeachment.
