State
Tomorrow, the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Ukraine, together with deputies, is gathering leaders and experts in the agri-food industry to discuss a joint vision of further steps for government and business representatives. Also during the event, a draft law on the introduction of a zero VAT rate on products will be presented.
“The purpose of the round table is to hear the opinions of farmers, food workers, experts, taking into account the experience of the EU, to analyze the legislative initiative of the deputy group of the Party “For the Future” No. 7023 on reducing VAT to 0% on food products in Ukraine,” the organizers of the event said.
According to People's Deputy Ivan Chaikovsky, this initiative is beginning to be discussed in parliament. Last week, a number of people's deputies launched the idea of 0% on products through a system of round tables in the regions.
“We are now initiating a large national round table in Kiev on Thursday. The idea is this: to discuss the bill itself - all its pluses and possible minuses. In addition, at the meeting we will once again go over the conclusions and recommendations received in the regions from scientists, tax specialists and production workers, ”said the people’s deputy.
The round table will be held on February 17 at 15.00 in the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Ukraine (Kyiv, Velyka Zhytomyrska St., 33, Coliseum Hall).
