Changes have been made to the list of licensing authorities

The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, at its meeting on August 25, 2023, made changes to the list of bodies that carry out licensing of economic activity.

According to this decision, the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine is excluded from the list of bodies that carry out licensing of economic activity, in particular, mediation in employment abroad.

Back in March of this year, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine adopted the Law "On the Protection of Labor Migrants and Combating Fraud in Employment Abroad", which provides for the abolition of this instrument of state regulation.

In addition, the new list of licensing bodies also changes the names of some types of economic activity, in particular, the bodies responsible for licensing are specified:

• National Council on Television and Radio Broadcasting;
• National Securities and Stock Market Commission;
• Ministry of Environmental Protection and Natural Resources of Ukraine.

These changes are aimed at improving the process of licensing and regulation of economic activity in Ukraine.
