Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Andriy Parubiy says he expects MPs will manage to approve the 2018 national budget in line with all legislative procedures in autumn.
“I hope that we will be able to go through all preliminary stages this autumn and then approve the budget," he said at a press briefing on August 23, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
Parubiy also reminded that last year the Ukrainian parliament for the first time managed to consider and approve the national budget in line with all procedures envisaged in the legislation. Now the parliament is holding consultations with the Cabinet of Ministers on this issue, the speaker added.
