Recall
Business Ombudsman Roman Vashchuk criticized the draft law on the "white business club" initiated by Hetmantsev, saying that it would create a reservation for the elite instead of leveling the playing field for all businesses.
In addition, Nina Yuzhanina, a member of the Rada's tax committee, emphasized that Hetmantsev, with his draft law on the "white business club," wants to legalize the right of the tax authorities to recognize a taxpayer as a risk to stop the registration of tax invoices under the guise of tax nannies. According to her, Hetmantsev deceived the co-authors of the bill on the "white business club"; in fact, the document provides for preferences for the chosen ones.
According to economic expert Yuriy Havrylechko, the legislative initiative of the head of the Rada's tax committee violates the Constitution of Ukraine and creates discriminatory conditions in the business environment. The fact that Hetmantsev's draft law contains discriminatory norms and has corruption risks is also stated in the conclusion of analysts of the Union of Ukrainian Entrepreneurs.
