The legislative impact assessment is a tool that helps analyse and forecast the potential impact of formulated public policies. The introduction of this toolkit will help improve the quality of draft laws being prepared in the Verkhovna Rada. Its main goal is to pay more attention to the possible consequences of adopted laws and conduct a comprehensive analysis of the proposed changes.
On Friday, 23 February, the Agency, together with the Committee on the Organisation of State Power, Local Self-Government, Regional Development and Urban Planning, held a workshop on the principles and practices of legislative impact assessment.
The Agency remains a staunch supporter of the popularisation of the legislative impact assessment tool. That is why it promotes the organisation of educational events and training involving representatives of lawmakers.
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 (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).
