Parliament next week to decide on date for considering law on impeachment - Parubiy

The speaker said this in an interview with the Priamyi TV channel, an Ukrinform correspondent reported.

“Obviously, we will approve this decision jointly [with the leaders of the parliamentary factions] at a meeting of the Agenda-Setting Council [on April 22],” said Parubiy.

According to him, five bills on impeachment have been already registered.

“Of course, there are factions that insist that this be also included in the package [of bills on the reform of the Verkhovna Rada], since this provides for strengthening the parliamentary oversight function and its responsibility,” said Parubiy.

As Ukrinform reported, President Petro Poroshenko on April 8 said that the law on impeachment is necessary and he is ready for discussions to work out a balanced document.
