The Parliament supported the European integration draft law on reduction and control of industrial emissions
The Verkhovna Rada has passed in the first reading the draft law No. 11355 "On Integrated Prevention and Control of Industrial Pollution", which is intended to implement EU law on industrial emissions.
This was announced by one of its authors, MP from the Servant of the People faction, Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Environmental Policy and Nature Management Oleh Bondarenko.
According to him, the draft law envisages reforming the field of industrial pollution by applying the best available technologies and methods, as well as introducing integrated emission and discharge permits for enterprises and mechanisms for controlling industrial pollution.
"The draft law should launch the process of gradual reduction of industrial pollution and the impact of industrial discharges and emissions on the health of Ukrainian citizens," the MP said.
In addition, he emphasized, this is an important reform on Ukraine's path to the EU and the implementation of the Ukraine Facility program.
"The draft law paves the way for the implementation of Directive 2010/75/EU. After its final adoption, our country will be able to start the long-awaited re-equipment of the industry. This is the key to the post-war green recovery of our country. Ukraine has to demonstrate to the civilized world its readiness to fulfill its obligations," emphasized Oleg Bondarenko.
