According to experts from the EBA Subsoil Use Committee, this initiative contradicts the principle of legal certainty, creates significant corruption risks, and violates Ukraine\u2019s international commitments regarding the stability of investment conditions.

Under current circumstances, it is crucial to avoid additional pressure on the sector and instead create opportunities for its development \u2014 through tax incentives, transparent regulation, and adherence to the principles of legal stability.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1895\" data-end=\"2110\">The EBA Subsoil Use Committee calls on Parliament to refrain from adopting changes that could undermine investor confidence and, instead, to focus on reforms that support the sustainable development of the industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The European Business Association expresses deep concern over certain amendments to the draft Law \u201cOn Amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine in connection with the adoption of the Law of Ukraine \u2018On Integrated Prevention and Control of Industrial Pollution\u2019.\u201d The draft law was adopted in the first reading and is currently being prepared for [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":33544,"featured_media":657665,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[15564,15563,15574],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-789577","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-lobbying-news-en","category-main-news-en","category-news-and-articles-from-association-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.eba.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/789577","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.eba.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.eba.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.eba.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/33544"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.eba.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=789577"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/new.eba.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/789577\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.eba.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/657665"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.eba.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=789577"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.eba.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=789577"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.eba.com.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=789577"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
