On 30 October 2024, the First Senate commenced deliberation of the case upon the constitutional complaint of Iryna Bahinska in the public part of the plenary session in the form of oral proceedings.
The complainant requests the Court to verify the constitutionality of paragraph 3 of Section II “Final and Transitional Provisions” of the Law of Ukraine “On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of Ukraine” No. 1774-VIII dated 6 December 2016.
The disputed provisions of this Law stipulate that the minimum wage after the entry into force of this Law shall not be applied as a calculation value for determining the salaries and wages of employees and other payments, except for the calculation of the annual amount of funding for the statutory activities of political parties; until the laws of Ukraine are amended to provide for the non-application of the minimum wage as a calculation value, it shall be applied in the amount of the subsistence minimum for able-bodied persons established as of 1 January of the calendar year.
During the plenary session, the Court adjourned the deliberation of this case due to the absence of the participants and involved parties to the constitutional proceedings. As noted by the Chair of the plenary session, Viktor Kryvenko, the next session will be scheduled in accordance with the procedure established by the Law of Ukraine “On the Constitutional Court of Ukraine”.
The judge-reporter in the case is Viktor Kychun.
The video recording of the plenary session is available on the official website of the Court in the section “Archive of video broadcasts of sessions”.
