Today
there have entered into force joint orders of the Ministry of Justice and the
Ministry of Finance on on-line information exchange among government agencies. Relevant documents from the Ministry of
Economy, which is responsible for the statistical authorities, and the Ministry
of Social Policy, which is responsible for the Pension Fund, were signed 2
weeks ago. Today at the briefing at the Government House, Minister of Justice
Pavlo Petrenko announced that.
"The SFS has
long refused to switch over to such radical changes. But after the Minister of
Finance intervened in the situation, we have also signed a joint order with the
Ministry of Finance on on-line data exchange from our registries, and on-line registration
by tax authorities of those entrepreneurs who have registered with the Ministry
of Justice", explained the Minister of Justice.
According to him, for
Ukrainians it means that a key and most problematic body regarding
communication, which is the State Fiscal Service, has been actually removed from
the list of contacts for the citizens who want to
start their own business.

"If you have registered in the registry of the Ministry of Justice,
every 2 hours other bodies get an access to the relevant information in an
electronic form. Whereas, within two hours these agencies provide updated
information from their registries. In simple words, if early in the day you have
been registered as an entrepreneur, by the end of the day you will already be
registered in other agencies avoiding visiting these institutions and standing
in queues", stressed the Minister of Justice. However, he noted that the following 2 weeks the system would be
operating in test mode. During this time all the shortcomings will be
identified and removed. "This is a huge step towards completing the process,
we have started earlier this year and providing an opportunity for Ukrainian
citizens to register their business within 24 hours. Among other things, this
is a very important sign for the World Bank to improve Ukraine's performance
in the Doing Business ranking," he stressed. |
