Action Plan of the Government for 2016.

The goal set by the Government is to ensure growth of the people's standard of living and improve quality due to sustainable economic development. Preconditions for achievement of such goal are ensuring national safety, macroeconomic stability, development of favourable business environment, strengthening rule of law and counteraction to corruptions and improvement of quality of public administration. In turn, these strategic priorities determine a set of immediate steps which should be taken by the Government before the end of a current year. Strategic priorities of the Government I. Macroeconomic stabilization, which provides for stability of public finance, low inflation and high stability of the financial system. For the main part of its history throughout the course of the last decades Ukraine has been in the condition of constant macroeconomic instability – population was becoming poor because of high inflation and devaluation, bankruptcy of the enterprises entailed loss of workplaces, savings of the people were disappearing under the circumstances of collapses of the banking system. To a considerable extent permanent economic collapses resulted in a considerable trailing of Ukraine from its Eastern European neighbours. Securing macroeconomic stabilization achieved in such a difficult manner is one of key priorities of the Government. However, not only stabilization of a current situation should become a goal and result of reforms but also achievement of a long-term macroeconomic stability without which it will be extremely difficult for Ukraine to achieve high level of economic development. For this purpose, the Government will implement a prudent and responsible economic policy. II. Development of favourable conditions for business development is a necessary precondition in order for Ukraine to achieve greater level of its economic development and successfully integrate with the European states. Only at the cost of sustainable growth of GDP it will be possible to ensure stable and high level of incomes as well as social payments to the people. III. Establishment of the rule of law and counteraction to corruption were the main requirement of the Revolution of Dignity as impunity of criminals, impossibility to achieve fair justice and pervasive corruption made people come to Maidan. The level of trust of the society to a judicial system is still extremely low and assessments of the level of corruption – very high. IV. Improvement of quality of public administration and public services will restore trust of the people to its state and it will allow the business to work efficiently and also create workplaces and grow. After the Revolution of Dignity they launched such important reforms in this sphere as decentralization and public service reform, which the Government is expected to continue actively. V. Restoration of the people's safety, which is jeopardized by the Russian aggression, war in the East and deterioration of a crime situation and social problems caused by the war.
