The legislative impact assessment is a tool for identifying and assessing the future consequences and likely impacts of proposed public policies. The Agency has been promoting this tool for a long time and helps the Parliament and the Government integrate it into their work, namely by organising specialised workshops and trainings for representatives of various government agencies.
On 21 June, an online workshop on legislative impact assessment and its application in the context of defence and security sector reform was held. The purpose of the workshop is to discuss the principles and practices of impact assessments with those directly involved in the development of legislation.
Workshop attendees:
- representatives of the Legal Support Department of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine;
- representatives of the State Special Transport Service;
- representatives of the National Defence University of Ukraine;
- representatives of the Reforms Support Office of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine.
The event was part of the project “Parliament and Accountability of the Security Sector in Ukraine” (PASS Ukraine), which the Agency implements jointly with the Parliamentary Centre of Canada, in cooperation with the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, and with the support of Global Affairs Canada within the framework of the Peace and Stabilization Operations Program (PSOPs).
