Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Taxation and Customs Policy Nina Yuzhanina does not rule out the adoption of the State Budget for 2017 during this plenary week only if all bills on amendments to the Budget Code are taken.

She said this to an Ukrinform correspondent.

"If we consider all the bills on budget formation tomorrow, then we may adopt the budget on Thursday," she said.

Earlier, Speaker of the Verkhovna Rada Andriy Parubiy expressed hope that the State Budget for 2017 will be adopted on December 8.
