The Government’s initiative to halve the number of district state administrations especially in those regions where consolidated communities (CCs ) are created will allow to solve the problem of duplication of management functions. The Prime Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Groysman announced on the air of the TV channel "Ukraine".

"We need to optimize the management system at the district level. Why we need to duplicate functions? We proposed to cut by half the number of district state administrations. This is a fair decision", Volodymyr Groysman said.

The Head of Government stressed that local power should be formed on an electoral basis. "I do not want to appoint or recommend the heads of the district administrations. Communities should elect their leaders then there will be efficient cooperation. And the state will perform the functions of control", the Prime Minister -added
