As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, the Verkhovna Rada in late 2016 made a clerical mistake which in fact outlawed the tax police from January 1, 2017 on.

Therefore, the Finance Ministry prepared the bill on the Financial Police.

In response to that, the Rada's Committee on Tax and Customs Policies initiated removal of the technical uncertainty of the work of the tax police, having registered bill No. 0940.
