KYIV. July 19 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Ukrainian lawmaker Maksym Mykytas (not a member of any parliamentary faction) has proposed to the Verkhovna Rada to approve the procedure for duplication of land auctions on the electronic platform and allow bidders to take part in online auctions.
The bill amending the Land Code of Ukraine was registered on July 14, 2017.
“The bill proposes amending Chapter 21 of the Land Code of Ukraine, envisaging the duplication of the auctions in the electronic land trading platform and the possibility of taking part in the auctions online,” the explanatory note to the bill said.
The author of the document believes that the absence of the online trading create conditions for corruption and restricts competition among bidders.
The lawmaker also registered a bill proposing the publication of announcements on the start of land auctions not only on the official website of the central executive power agencies, but also on websites of local self-government agencies and the executive agency of the administrative and territorial unit where the land parcel is located.
He said that this would allow raising public awareness about land auctions.
