According to him, the Committee revealed legal shortcomings, since in the course of the voting parliament, several contradictory amendments were adopted. The parliamentarian explained that he would have to vote again under Article 5 of the Law, which establishes the algorithm recognition of the owner of a large business by oligarch.
He added that, according to one editing, this decision will be taken by the Council of National Security and Defense (National Security Council), and, according to another adopted editing, is the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption on Special Commission.

According to the document, the oligarch should consider a person confirmed by the value of the assets of which exceeds a million subsistence minimum.
