Today, the Government has supported amendments to the Regulation on the Commissioner for Persons Missing in Special Circumstances.

From now on, the legal status of the Commissioner's regional representatives is officially enshrined at the level of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.

Thus, the powers of the regional representatives of the Ombudsperson's Office have been expanded at the state level.

This will facilitate interaction of regional representatives with the National Police and other local authorities. It will also speed up the processing of information about missing persons and facilitate the coordination of the search.

Please note that if your relatives do not get in touch, please contact the hotline of the Commissioner for Missing Persons by phone: 0 800 339 247. On weekends, messages are accepted via Viber and Telegram at (095) 896-04-21.
