On May 22, 2017 the Draft Concept of the “End-to-End” Legislative Process presentation took place.
The draft concept paper on the “end-to-end” legislative process contains analysis of current practices, a review of international experience, as well as proposals concerning the concept of “end-to-end” legislative process reform with an emphasis on strengthening coordination between the subjects of legislative initiative. This document offers alternatives of changing the “end-to-end” legislative process, which can be described as “government-centred” (based on the experience of France), “parliament-centred” (based on US experience) and “the concept of minimally necessary changes” (on the basis of analysis of existing practices in Ukraine).
- Lack of strategic planning in the policy-making process;
- Dominance of political expediency over the rule of law;
- Dominance of the “juridical” paradigm in the policy making process;
- Actual lack of a system of monitoring, evaluation and review of adopted decisions”
Preparation of the analytical materials is a part of a project implemented by the NGO Agency of Legislative Initiatives with the support of USAID RADA Program: Responsible Accountable Democratic Assembly, implemented by East Europe Foundation.
