Parliament plans to consider bill on Donbas reintegration next plenary week

The Verkhovna Rada intends to consider the bill on the reintegration of Donbas next plenary week.

Speaker Andriy Parubiy said this at a meeting of the Agenda-Setting Council, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“It is recommended that bill No.7163 should be considered next week. We should even start a plenary week with it because it has about 700 amendments and it may take a full day," he said.

Parubiy also added that it is recommended that this bill should be considered after the voting on the state budget.

As Ukrinform earlier reported, President Petro Poroshenko submitted the bill on Donbas reintegration for parliament’s consideration on October 4. The bill passed first reading on October 6.
