At the initiative of the ESBU, amendments have been made to the legislation governing state control over the use of tax benefits. 

Earlier, analysts of the Economic Security Bureau of Ukraine identified prerequisites that contribute to the unjustified use of tax benefits by enterprises founded by public associations of people with disabilities. In order to address the identified gaps in the legislation governing the use of these tax benefits, the ESBU proposed to amend a number of regulations. In particular, to improve the control mechanism. 

Currently, the relevant amendments have already been made to the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 1010 dated 08.08.2007 regulating this issue. 

As a reminder, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine recently approved the Procedure for Conducting a Complex of Measures for Assessing Risks in the Economic Sector.

The Procedure sets out the organisational framework for conducting a set of economic risk assessment measures carried out by the ESBU with the involvement of regulatory authorities and other state bodies engaged in combating criminal offences and preventing threats to the economic security of the state, as well as business entities.
