This was reported to the newspaper "Ekonomicheskiye Izvestiya" by Deputy Cabinet Minister Olena Lukash, according to "Korrespondent."
She noted that one-tenth of the presidential decrees do not comply with the Constitution. According to her, a special parliamentary commission is currently studying this issue, examining compliance with the Constitution and laws in the norm-making and law-enforcement activities of state bodies, officials, and subjects of authority.
The publication reports that the commission is currently working on presidential decrees regarding VAT administration, the continuation of Borys Tarasyuk's performance of the duties of foreign minister, the list of positions whose candidates are agreed with the President, as well as the preparation and submission of draft presidential acts.
The government claims that none of these decrees comply with the Constitution of Ukraine and current legislation, and also restrict the lawful rights of the government.
While the parliamentary commission is dealing exclusively with presidential legislative initiatives, despite the fact that the decision on its creation also provided for analysis of the norm-making activities of the government, parliament, the National Security and Defense Council, the Prosecutor General's Office, the Constitutional Court, the Supreme Court, and local self-government bodies.
In turn, Presidential Advisor Mykola Poludionny suggests that the coalition intends to form a large-scale package of submissions to the Constitutional Court in this way.
"The Constitutional Court will be overwhelmed with reviewing these submissions, if they are filed as urgent, and it will not soon get to the political reform and the Law on the Cabinet of Ministers," a source close to the Constitutional Court told the newspaper.
Meanwhile, some opposition deputies consider the commission illegitimate and rule out the possibility of passing the commission's draft resolutions through the Verkhovna Rada.
Recall that in September of last year, a war of decrees was waged between the President and the prime minister. At that time, Yanukovych rejected seven of Yushchenko's decrees and returned them to the Presidential Secretariat.
Prime Minister of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych himself has repeatedly stated that presidential decrees are adopted unpredictably and are not foreseeable.
"Everything concerning presidential acts — we do not know how they are prepared. We do not wait for presidential decrees and do not know what they are adopted for, and decrees always have an executor, and usually it is the government," noted the prime minister.
