First Deputy Health Minister Oleksandra Pavlenko has announced that the Ministry of Health is set to present a draft legislation on the government procurement of medicines using national budget funds through global organizations.
Speaking at a roundtable conference co-organized with the Ukrainian Bar Association (UBA) on Monday, Pavlenko said : "The Heath Ministry has drawn up a draft law which will allow carrying out state procurement via international organizations. Maybe it will be registered coming days."
She said the conditions of the draft law's registration will be based on whether the document is filed by the government, the presidential administration, or legislators, which will affect the length of time it will take to process the draft.
She added : "If the bill is submitted via the cabinet, it will take more time." She noted that the document will foresee changes to some laws, especially, the law on medicines, and the law on government procurement.
