Detective activity of Ukrainians caused misunderstanding among parliamentarians

Yesterday, 13:49 Victoria Savchenko

The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine refused at the legislative level to regulate some aspects of the activities of private detectives. So writes replyua.net referring to RBC-Ukraine.

In particular, bill No. 3726 “On private detective (search) activity” was submitted for consideration by the Ukrainian parliament. It contains some proposals of the President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko regarding the settlement of the issue of the work of private detectives on the territory of our country. However, during the next meeting of deputies of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, the document was rejected. So, only one hundred and sixty-one parliamentarians voted for its adoption. In turn, one hundred and seventy deputies cast their votes for sending the document for further revision.

It is worth noting that the law clearly spells out the rights of entities involved in private detective and search activities. For example, the document states that it can receive an unlimited certificate of the right to engage in the mentioned type of activity for ten days from the date of filing of the documents. In addition, according to the new law, from the beginning of next year, upon receipt of a certificate, private detectives will be forced to pay the amount of one living wage for able-bodied citizens. The authorities plan to send all the money received as a result of such actions to the state budget of our country. In addition, the document describes in detail the grounds for depriving the subject of the right to engage in detective activities.

The bill 10024 “On private detective (search) activity, registered in the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, is aimed at this.” This was announced by MP Igor Kotvitsky on his page in Facebook .

The people's deputy said that according to unofficial data, today in Ukraine there are many private detectives and private detective agencies. “It is absolutely clear that the functioning of private detective (search) activity is an irreversible process. Now this type of activity is not legally registered, ”Kotwitsky emphasized.

In order to legalize private detective work, members of the Committee on legislative support for law enforcement, prepared and submitted to the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine the corresponding bill. This is the second edition.

“The President vetoed the first draft of the bill, which the Verkhovna Rada could not overcome. The new edition of the bill takes into account the President’s proposals, except for one fundamental point - the bill proposes to provide the opportunity to carry out detective activities in criminal cases as well, ”said Igor Kotvitsky.

Recall that in most countries of the world private detective (search) activity is recognized at the state level, regulated by laws and optimally used to increase the ability of citizens and legal entities to protect their legal rights and interests.

Private detectives and detective agencies operate in many countries around the world. The leaders in this area are the United States of America, Great Britain, France, Germany, Canada, India, Israel, Japan, Norway, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Mexico.

For example, in England, the number of employees in private security and detective firms is twice the number of police officers. In the United States, private security services have a budget that is 50% higher than the budget of all the country's police agencies combined, and has more than 1 million 100 thousand employees. In the state of Israel (with a population of just over 5 million people), more than two thousand detective and security companies work.
