While speaking at the visiting Government meeting in Poltava, The Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatseniuk said Ukraine will not be able to launch a full-fledged land market in 2016 if the existing regulatory framework is not changed, UNIAN reports.
As to the report, the PM stressed the Economic Development and Trade Ministry jointly with the Agricultural Policy and Food Ministry and the State Service for Geodesy, Cartography and Cadastre should develop a package of bills to facilitate the launch of the land market.
«With the existing current legal framework, the land market will not start working in a well-organized manner in 2016 [when a moratorium on the sale and purchase of farmland expires in Ukraine]. Well have to develop economic and political positions on this issue. I am the first one who is interested that investment is made in the agricultural sector. But we have no right to allow the squandering and careless sell-out of land resulting in the creation of new nouveau riche landlords.»
As to the report, Yatsenyuk stressed that in addition to forming of a new legislation base, it is necessary to carry out an inventory of land, and hold negotiations with investors and the public to determine the most pressing and sensitive issues of land relations.
«There should be the package of laws and the formation of a real basis for full-fledged land market relations and only then well launch the market. There is no alternative,» Yatsenyuk said.
