Deregulation in the Field of Legal Regulation of Land Relations or the New "Land Constitution"

Abstract

Deregulation in land relations involves the elimination of unnecessary bureaucratic procedures. At present, one of the priorities in Ukraine is the transformation of the State Geocadastre into a service-oriented service, where services will be provided to all interested people. In turn, this will give owners and entrepreneurs the opportunity to save time and money, while also minimizing corruption risks. On April 28, 2021, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine adopted the Law of Ukraine « On Amendments to the Land Code of Ukraine and Other Legislative Acts to Improve the System of Management and Deregulation in the Sphere of Land Relations » , popularly known as the new Land Constitution. This article aims to reflect how this bill is revolutionary in the legal regulation of land relations. This law introduces radical changes to 6 codes of Ukraine and 24 laws of Ukraine. Significant changes in legislation are taking place over time, which lead to a new challenge for communities, opportunities for development, filling their own budgets, building a policy on the rational use of such an important and limited resource – land. The changes provide for the redistribution of powers in the field of land management in terms of their territorial affiliation, as well as the redistribution of powers in terms of control over the use and protection of land. The powers of the State Geocadastre are also changing due to the deregulation of a number of current functions, for example, the state examination of land management documentation is being abolished. O ne of the most important innovations in the procedure of forming the site is the abolition of the state examination of land management documentation. The article reflects that the Law affects a broad layer of regulation of land relations and makes significant changes in the legal field of land.
