On November, 16 bill On the Administrative Fee (№4380) was registered in the parliament.

The bill was developed for the purpose of regulating relations in the sphere of paying for administrative services, ensuring the relations transparence, as well as maintaining sustainable and qualitative provision of administrative services based on reasonable (rational) administrative fees.

The problem is that, on the one hand, a fee for administrative services provision is not sufficiently compensatory for the state and especially for local self-government bodies, services provision subjects and ASCs, and on the other hand, it is not transparent for services consumers, making a corrupt practice in the sphere quite possible.

Viktor Tymoshchuk, an expert of the U-LEAD with Europe Programme, analyses the bill in the material.
