Now it is important for us to join forces, in particular, to strengthen the capacity of territorial communities, especially in the de-occupied territories. This will also be facilitated by the adoption by the Parliament of the draft law “On Service in Local Self-Government Bodies” (No. 6504), which aims to establish new legal and organizational principles of service in local self-government bodies,” said Nataliia Aliushyna, Head of the NAUCS.
