The Cabinet of Ministers has authorized the State Emergency Service to provide paid services, which should intensify the certification of mine action operators. Shmyhal said this during a government meeting, UNN reports.

This is another decision that will be important for the recovery. We allow the SES to provide paid services for civil protection conformity assessment. This will intensify the certification of mine action operators. There are currently about 35 of them. We expect that there will be many more. We are creating a market environment in the field of humanitarian demining. We engage the private sector as much as possible to clear Ukraine of mine debris as soon as possible
