Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Volodymyr Lytvyn: “Elections-2012 may become a debut of the civil society”

- The ninth session of the Verkhovna Rada of the sixth convocation was one of the most fruitful. I have to admit that at that session we had fewer clashes and confrontations: only 5 plenary sessions were not held for the reasons of political activity. During the whole ninth session, the decision were taken about 699 draft laws, including 191 laws that were adopted or confirmed, 67 bills were approved in the first reading , 441 bill was rejected and removed from the consideration, including 70 projects - returned for revision, - said the head of the legislative body, Volodymyr Lytvyn, speaking from the parliamentary tribune at the closing session.
