According to a Ukrinform correspondent, 247 MPs voted in favor of Bill No. 15056 at its second reading and in its entirety. “The bill is a logical continuation of our systematic efforts and an important step toward fulfilling Ukraine’s international commitments. Its provisions are aimed at improving criminal and criminal procedure legislation, strengthening accountability mechanisms, and closing legislative gaps,” said Serhii Ionushas, chair of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Law Enforcement. The bill seeks to bring Ukraine’s domestic legislation into line with the provisions of the Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions to ensure its effective implementation.
