The law «On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of Ukraine Regarding Strengthening the Powers of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office» has come into effect in Ukraine.

This information is reported by the official publication of the Verkhovna Rada, «Golos Ukrainy».

The Verkhovna Rada approved the bill introduced by President Volodymyr Zelensky aimed at restoring the independence of NABU and SAP.

On the same day, the President signed the corresponding law.

The edition of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, adopted on July 22, contained potential risks for the effective functioning of the anti-corruption infrastructure in Ukraine, particularly concerning the independence of NABU and SAP.

Following the situation surrounding the adoption of the law on the powers of NABU and SAP, the procedures for decision-making within the «Servant of the People» party faction will be improved, with a working group already in action.
