More than 4,000 amendments were submitted, so they were combined into 16 blocks. All of them have already been considered by the committee, the transitional and final provisions have been finalized. Then they will discuss with the authors of the amendments.

Main blocks:

- restrictions on the constitutional rights and freedoms of evaders (travel outside of Ukraine, seizure of bank accounts, etc.) were decided to be removed from the draft law. The restriction on driving a vehicle may partially remain.
