In accordance with the Decree, from 1 July 2020, a “package” principle is introduced, providing for the introduction of conceptually new mechanisms in the preparation of draft regulatory legal acts, in accordance with which:
- when developing a new draft law, reference norms aimed at its implementation are developed and enter into force simultaneously with the new law or within the time period established by law;
- if the provisions established by the new draft law require appropriate amendments to previously adopted laws, then amendments to previously adopted laws are carried out simultaneously with the adoption of the new law;
- ministries and departments make changes and additions to the departmental normative legal acts adopted by them on the same issue in one act;
