Ukraine needs to introduce 30% of all EU acts into national legislation – MP

This was reported by MP Yevhenia Kravchuk, Deputy Head of the Servant of the Pele faction and chair of the Committee on Humanitarian and Information Picy, who spoke in an interview with Ukrinform.

"Currently, Ukraine needs to implement about 3,000 acts into its legislation," Kravchuk said.

According to the lawmaker, this is needed to bring Ukraine's legislation closer to EU standards.

At the same time, the legislator noted that there could be more such acts, but not all of them have to become part of Ukraine’s legislation as the latter has certain acts with direct affect.

Kravchuk also emphasized that it is very important that Ukrainian and Eurean legislative acts not get into conflict with each other or cause contradictions.

"We need to introduce about 30% of the total number of EU acts into national legislation. This is a big job for lawmakers and government officials," she concluded.

As reported earlier, on December 14, the Eurean Council approved the decision to launch negotiations with Ukraine and Mdova regarding their accession to the EU.
