Cabinet decision on transfer of control over State Fiscal Service illegal, won't be promulgated – Finance minister

 The decision of the Cabinet of Ministers to transfer to it control over the State Fiscal Service, which is now subordinated to the Ministry of Finance, was made in violation of the regulations and is illegal, Finance Minister Oleksandr Danyliuk has said.

"The decision has not been made public yet. I think it will never be promulgated, as it does not meet the general government system," he said at a business meeting in Kyiv.

Danyliuk noted that the Ministry of Finance forms policy in taxation and customs spheres, and the relevant body that implements this policy, the State Fiscal Service, is coordinated by the ministry. He noted that the Ministry of Finance works in this way with the State Treasury, the State Financial Monitoring Service, and the State Fiscal Service should also be in a unified system.

"The issue of transfer of control has been raised several times. I do not know what is behind this, but, precisely, the concentration of so many powers, especially in the pre-election period, in one hand is wrong. And we should, first of all, think about state interests and the state," he said.

In his opinion, the current conflict will be the impetus for reforming the State Fiscal Service.
