У цій збирці стисло викладено відомості про галузі економіки та напрями політики, які, імовірно, буде включено у зону вільної торгівлі між Україною та Європейським Союзом у ширших рамках Угоди про асоціацію. Галузі і напрями політики було відібрано на основі відносної важливості для економіки України та наявності фахівців і результатів аналізу у рамках проекту UEPLAC. Отже, ця Пам’ятка не забезпечує повного та всебічного охоплення майбутньої угоди.

The creation of a favourable environment for enterprises is a key priority agreed by Ukraine and the EU in the EU-Ukraine Action Plan of 2005. The elimination of inconsistencies in the existing Economic and Civil codes and the convergence of company law with relevant international and EU rules and standards are part of the key principles to be taken into account in a new Joint Stock Company law.
The current report does not intend to comment on the draft law, article by article. Therefore more detailed observations could be further developed on specific provisions.
The purpose of this study is twofold: to examine the extent to which the current draft law takes into account the best practice of corporate governance and addresses the EU legislation accordingly, and to determine areas for improvement to make the draft law more workable and more responsive to the needs of enterprises.

The performance of market surveillance activities is one of the ENP-AP priorities and a key condition for the signature of an ACAAs (Agreement on Conformity Assessment and Acceptance of Industrial Products) between the EU and Ukraine for some categories of products. To this end a preliminary agreement has been concluded between the Services of the European Commission and Ukraine in Brussels on 19 December 2005.
In this context, at least two preliminary draft law (not yet registered at the Verkhovna Rada) are circulated. One of them is originating from the Ministry of Economy while the second one has been drafted by the DSSU (State Committee for standardisation, technical regulations and consumer protection).
UEPLAC got one of those papers from the IFC Project “SME Policy development” and takes this opportunity to expose the main shortcomings and the best practices to keep in mind on the occasion of the regulation of market surveillance activities.

This study was requested by the SDLA in order toassist in dealing with some specific matters reflected in draft legislation dealing with insolvency matters.
UEPLAC is pleased to take note that a rather successful attempt of assessing the draft against the Council Regulation (EC) No1346/2000 (furtheron, the Insolvency Regulation) was made. Without any further prejudice, UEPLAC streamlined the main principles laid down in the Insolvency Regulation for the purposes as outlined in the request and developed drafts.

Priorities agreed in the EU-Ukraine Action Plan (ENP-AP) under the point 39 are worded as follows:
“Implement, and build upon, commitments on state aid under Art.49.2.2 and 49.2.3 of the PCA, and develop legislation and control regime compatible with that of the EU
Draft and adopt state aid legislation, including in particular:
- a definition of state aid compatible with that of the EU;
- a principle of prohibition of state aids which distort trade between Ukraine and the EU.
- the establishment of transparency as regards state aid granted in Ukraine (particularly by establishing a list of all aid grantors and an independent surveillance body, a regular report on the amounts, types and recipients of aid).”
It appears that the adoption of the corresponding legislation has been delayed and that none of the other activities foreseen will be carried out before the expiry of the Action Plan. In other words, a comprehensive system of State aid control has still to be established in Ukraine.
In this context, the State Department for Legal Approximation at the Ministry of Justice has expressed the need to clarify key institutional, organizational and legal issues to build up the system of State aid control.

Among the specific problems, the problem of the management authorities and management control shall be discussed.

The report is written by Juris Ozolins from Ukrainian-European Policy and Legal Advice Centre as a response to the request of the State Department for Legal Approximation of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine of 7 September 2007. The Document is devoted to issues arising from hypothetical Ukraine’s application of a request for full membership in the South-East Energy Community. The State Department for Legal Approximation (Mr. Taras Kachka) already made a comparison and assessment of similarities and deviations between principles and requirements of the SEE EE Treaty and Ukrainian legislation related to energy sector. Thus, in order to avoid duplications, this paper mostly deals with technical, economical and commercial questions assuming that legal issues must be solved should Ukraine reach full membership in the Community. This document aimed at definition of rational from decision to become member of Community and barriers to be overcome in order to afford it. Due to complexity of full-scale assessment and to absence of other stakeholders of Ukraine involved in impact assessment for time being, this part of the report is limited to electricity sector.
