In the evening of January 30, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine presented to the Verkhovna Rada an updated bill on mobilization .
The new draft law is available for viewing on the official website of the parliament. It is noted that it provides for monetary support of at least 20 thousand hryvnias without taking into account additional remuneration, and during the period of martial law it is possible to receive additional remuneration from 30 to 100 thousand hryvnias.
It is noted that persons with disabilities of all groups will be exempted from military service. It is also provided that persons who have reached the age of 25 will become conscripts and may be subject to mobilization. Those who are mobilized are given two months to resolve personal issues and prepare for military service.
The new bill also states that military personnel during martial law will be entitled to leave for a year, which can be divided into parts, but not less than 15 consecutive days. It also provides that released military personnel will receive an additional 90 days of paid leave if they choose to continue their service.
It is also important to note that now conscripts do not have to visit the Territorial Personnel Center to update their data. This can be done online in your personal account or in the Administrative Services Center. This makes it possible to freely move to another city and update your account at a new address.
In addition, on the basis of the register of conscripts, "Oberig" is proposed to create an electronic office of the military. Citizens are obliged to register an electronic office and undergo a medical examination.
After mobilization, all citizens will be required to undergo mandatory military training lasting 2-3 months. It is noted that a person cannot be sent to the front immediately after mobilization.
The bill also proposes to abolish conscription, introducing basic military training instead. A person between the ages of 18 and 24 independently chooses the moment of military training, which will last no more than 5 months. At the same time, the workplace for the person is preserved during this period, which is an innovation compared to the current legislation.
The postponement of mobilization remains for students of professional and technical, professional and higher educational institutions who receive full-time or dual education. A condition for obtaining a deferment is the achievement of a higher level of education than previously obtained (with the exception of graduate students studying under a contract at the expense of individuals or legal entities).
