Under the guise of the decision of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine,
the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption is removing itself from exercising its powers
The National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption regularly publishes information on the impossibility of exercising its powers referring to the Decision of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine of October 27, 2020 No. 13-r/2020. This time it is noted that the decision of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine made it difficult to verify the information in the reports of political parties.
Thus, systematically under the guise of the decision of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption violates anti-corruption legislation on a daily basis and removes itself from exercising its powers.
Misunderstanding of the Court's decision or its deliberate misinterpretation results in negative consequences in general. Therefore, we emphasise that the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, at the request of a participant in the constitutional proceedings, who participated in the case, may clarify the procedure for execution of the decision of the Court. The subject of the submission, the President, the Chairman of the Parliament, has the right to make such a request.
Clarifying how to apply the decision of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine will stop its arbitrary interpretation and will encourage the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption to take responsibility for its illegal actions.
