‘Amendments to the Methodology of formation of capable hromadas, adopted by the Government on January, 24, 2020, do not «change the rules during the game»’, told Vyacheslav Nehoda, Deputy Minister of Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine.

Formation of capable hromadas is not undergoing any revolution. The key criteria for capable hromadas formation are unchangeable: the territory integrity, the number of children, etc. New criteria just allow us to assess the capability level of both acting and project hromadas, to make an evidence-based decision when it is not evident and to justify it during a conversation with hromadas.
