The Public Bills Discussion Portal allows citizens to get acquainted with the bills that are to be submitted to the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine and are under consideration by parliamentary committees, as well as participate in their discussion.

The Public Bills Discussion Portal was developed in response to the recommendations of the European Parliament concerning internal reforms of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine in order to improve its institutional capacity and encourage wider public involvement in the legislative process.
