“The issue of corruption, I think, will be solved….. Today the chairman of the supervisory board (“Energoatom” – ER) is already being fully elected. Accordingly, there will be a functioning supervisory board that will monitor all decisions that will be made. From the point of view of corporate governance, I think this is the best way out,” he said during the ‘Hour of questions to the government’, which is broadcast by MP Oleksiy Honcharenko (European Solidarity faction).
The Cabinet of Ministers approved Timothy Stone (Timothy John Stone), Michael E. Kirst and Jarek Neverovic as independent members of the supervisory board of Energoatom by order No. 566 of June 21, 2024, and Timofey Milovanov and Vitaliy Petruk as representatives of the state.

The Cabinet of Ministers approved the terms of contracts with members of the NAEK’s supervisory board by Order No. 1224 of November 26, 2024, without disclosing details.
In December of the same year, First Deputy Economy Minister Oleksiy Sobolev said that the government was waiting for a position on the contracts and readiness to continue work from the independent members of Energoatom’s supervisory board, whose first meeting has been open since July 17. According to him, the proposed conditions are in line with salaries in other major Ukrainian energy companies.

The EU ambassador to Ukraine, Katarina Maternova, said in a reply to a letter of inquiry from the Interfax-Ukraine news agency on 14 January that the G7 ambassadors had urged Prime Minister Denys Shmygal to ensure the work of the supervisory board of the NAEK Enerhoatom as soon as possible.
