Yanukovych ordered the Verkhovna Rada to

While taking amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine
Verkhovna Rada decided to correct the President
On the July, 7th, 2011, while taking
amendments to the Draft Law #8217 On Amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine
and Certain Legislative Acts of Ukraine (regarding Improvement of
Certain Provisions of the Tax Code of Ukraine) in the second
reading, Verhovna Rada decided to «correct» the
President.
Based upon the text of the Draft Law
published on the website of Verkhovna Rada (the card of the draft law), the Parliament voted
for the regulations opposite to those which it voted for last
December and which were than offered by the President.
Thus, on the December, 2nd, 2010,
the President gave his opinion on the Tax Code by pointing
paragraphs which contradicted the Constitution of
Ukraine, and passed his conclusions to the Parliament in a
form of an official document: «Amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine». In
particular, the President in his amendments pointed that the
request of taxpayer’s explanations contradicts the
Constitution.
At that time Parliament agreed with
President’s arguments, and adopted the Code as a whole
taking into account President’s amendments and
excluded the provisions on the right of tax authorities to request
explanations from the Tax Code.
And now, judging by the text from
the website of Verkhovna Rada as it was before the last voting,
Parliament returned the provision about the right to request
explanations, particularly to the article where it was removed from
by the proposition of the President (20.1.2). However even the
wording in practice is the same that was removed in December, by
proposition of the President.
In other words, the President has
been «corrected»? It's interesting, will he sign the document
if only last December he considered it unconstitutional?

When the official publishing of new draft Tax Code of Ukraine
will take place? The question is troubling Ukrainian business that
is waiting for this since July 8th, the day when the Verkhovna Rada
passed the resolution On Whole Ukrainian Discussing of the Draft Tax Code
of Ukraine. This is a state-level document, that will
determine the future of the whole Ukrainian business and, thus, to
the large extent, the future of country's economy and that
needs a serious, not fast, elaboration.
The improved draft Tax code can be published by the end of
current week. That is a forecast made by Vice Prime Minister Sergii
Tigipko, during press conference on the 2nd of August - quote
news agency Inretfax-Ukraine, news portals Ukrainska Pravda and KorrespondenT.
The forecast looks quite unclear, especially if take into
consideration that Vice Prime Minister anounced a certain date
- 2nd of August, during his working meeting with representatives of
the Federation of Employers of Ukraine, European Business
