3 квітня 2019 року було оприлюднено обговорення проекту постанови Кабінету Міністрів України, з яким можна ознайомитися нижче.

Повідомлення про оприлюднення
проекту постанови Кабінету Міністрів України
«Про затвердження Правил надання послуги з постачання гарячої води та типових договорів про надання послуги з постачання гарячої води»

Розробник
Міністерство регіонального розвитку, будівництва та житлово-комунального господарства України.

Почалося громадське обговорення підзаконних нормативно-правових актів до ЖКП: чому це важливо і що воно дасть?

Уряд та уповноважені центральні органи виконавчої влади приступили до громадських обговорювань підзаконних нормативно-правових актів до ЖКП на основі Закону України «Про житлово-комунальні послуги», який Верховна Рада прийняла ще 9 листопада 2017 року.
Нагадуємо, що у травні 2018 року минув термін виконання положень Закону щодо підготовки підзаконних нормативно-правових актів для його імплементації. А вже 1 травня 2019 Закон повинен вступити у дію. Як бачимо, залишилося обмаль часу, а роботи дуже багато, адже підзаконна база буде тільки обговорюватися і прийматися.
