... of telecommunication, standardization, certification and metrological maintenance underwent no essential changes (except for the redistribution of powers in favor of NTC).
Article 28 "Registration of Internet domain names" in the deputy draft should be mentioned as well. It is likely to arouse conflicting opinions among Ukraine's Internet users. However, it should be recognized that the national domain could not remain for a long time above state interests. It is not a bad idea of resigning commissions of the state regulation to the National commission as proposed in the draft especially against a current situation when a unit of Ukraine's Security Service pretends to perform these duties.
It can be concluded that the deputy draft surpasses much the Ministry project both in contents and a level of jurisdictional technique and much better meets requirements of harmonizing Ukraine's legislation with EU laws. Accepting the law based on this draft (adjusted for necessary improvements) would create conditions that were more favorable for Ukraine's market of telecommunication. However, one should remember such concepts as "freedom of speech", “personal correspondence”, "vote" and so on.
