Another oblast has now a perspective plan for the formation of hromadas’ territories within 100% of its territory. Today the Chernihiv Oblast Council has approved this document, defining the configurations of 55 amalgamated hromadas that cover the whole territory of the oblast. The next step is the approval of the Perspective Plan by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.

As it is known, 37 AHs have already been established in the Chernihiv Oblast.

Yulia Svyrydenko, first deputy head of the Chernihiv Oblast State Administration, in her comment to decentralisation.gov.ua told that the principle of voluntariness is key to the formation of capable hromadas.

The Chernihiv Oblast has become the third oblast to approve a perspective plan for the formation of hromadas’ territories covering 100% of the oblast's territory. Earlier this work was done by the Rivne and Kirovohrad Oblasts.
