As previously reported (see the information in the News section as of 8 October 2024), the Parliamentary Committee on Finance, Taxation and Customs Policy at its meeting on 4 October 2024 approved amendments to the second reading of the Draft Law of Ukraine \u2018On Amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine on Peculiarities of Taxation during the Period of Martial Law\u2019 (Reg. No. 11416-d dated 30 August 2024), which proposes, inter alia, to set the minimum selling price for a unit of commercial production of a mining enterprise – extracted minerals (mineral raw materials) for granite as raw materials for rubble stone at least USD 6.50 per 1 tonne and for sand as refractory raw materials – at least USD 5.00 per 1 tonne.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In no way questioning the need to strengthen the defense capability of our country in its most difficult time, as well as the need to purchase military equipment and weapons and provide for the military, the Association nevertheless considers it necessary to note the following.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Introduce a minimum sales price per unit for granite as a raw material for rubble stone and sand as a refractory raw material at the legislative level:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    1.1. Significantly worsens the status of Ukraine as a state with a market economy, as it negatively affects the progress in the rule of law and democratic reforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1.2. Contradicts the Law of Ukraine \u2018On Prices and Pricing\u2019, since the above products are not subject to state regulated prices, and enterprises use free prices in the course of their business activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    At the same time, the Law of Ukraine \u2018On Prices and Pricing\u2019 does not provide for any powers of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine in the field of pricing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1.3. Questions the expediency of conducting a geological and economic assessment of a deposit, the main purpose of which is to identify investment-attractive geological objects for development, establish their industrial value and economic efficiency of operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1.4. In the nearest future, it may have a negative impact on the production volumes, which have already significantly decreased due to the prolonged military operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1.5. It will lead to an increase in the final cost of non-metallic construction materials (crushed stone, rubble, screenings, sand), which will be essential for the reconstruction of industrial, residential, transport, medical, cultural facilities and objects in accordance with the National Programmes of the Recovery Plan of Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Specified price indicators:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      2.1. Do not have any explanation or economic justification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      2.2. They have an average value, and, therefore, do not take into account the mining and geological conditions of the mineral, the development of the deposit, and the extraction technology. As a result, even similar enterprises located nearby have different financial and economic indicators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. The draft Law of Ukraine \u2018On Amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine on Peculiarities of Taxation during the Period of Martial Law\u2019 (in the new proposed version – \u2018On Amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine and Other Laws of Ukraine on Ensuring the Balance of Budget Revenues during the Period of Martial Law\u2019) should enter into force on the day following the day of its publication, and certain exceptions to it – on 1 January 2025.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        This is contrary to the basic principles of the tax legislation of Ukraine, namely the principle of stability, as according to sub-clause 4.1.9 of clause 4.1 of Article 4 of the Tax Code of Ukraine, changes to any elements of taxes and fees may not be made later than six months before the beginning of the new budget period in which the new rules and rates will be in force. Taxes and duties, their rates, and tax privileges cannot be changed during the budget year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Therefore, the draft law should be enacted only from 1 January 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Therefore, the Association appealed to the President of Ukraine V.O. Zelensky, the Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine R.O. Stefanchuk, the Prime Minister of Ukraine D.A. Shmyhal with a request to carefully consider this appeal and make a decision at their level that will facilitate the removal<\/strong> of the draft Law of Ukraine \u2018On Amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine on Ensuring the Balance of Budget Revenues during the Period of Martial Law\u2019 (reg. No. 11416-d dated 30 August 2024) the provisions<\/strong> that provide for the establishment of a minimum selling price for a unit of commercial output of a mining enterprise – extracted minerals (mineral raw materials) for granite as raw materials for rubble stone and for sand as refractory raw materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
