The leader of the ruling party said that no procedures for drafting project documentation have changed, and critics are engaged in manipulation.
Olena Shulyak, the leader of the Servant of the People party, explained why the draft law №7198 – on compensation for damage or destruction of real estate due to Russian aggression, architects – namely those responsible for design documentation and quality of constructed facilities – fell out of the law. as developers became its key beneficiaries. During an interview with Inna Vedernikova for ZN.UA , she responded to opponents' criticism that “paying money directly to construction companies without a project is a violation of the law, the established logic of building facilities and potential budget theft. funds “.
“We are in touch with representatives of the architectural community 24/7. Architects, design engineers, consulting engineers, experts, technicians who inspect buildings… I have not communicated so intensively with industry representatives during my professional career in the construction market. In fact, nothing new is happening. There are specialists who only speak and advise, and there are those who are constantly working. I can do any work there for free, including dismantling debris, “Shulyak said.
According to her, “we just need to understand that the National Union of Architects of Ukraine is not the whole architectural community of our country.” The head of the CH explains that there are more than five thousand architects in Ukraine, and there are a little more than 500 members of the union.Astina architects are just terrified of being left without access to budget money. Because they learned to work only with budget money. Because in budget projects it is possible to build schemes of constant increase of the price for the services. It is very difficult for ordinary people to understand what is real in this game and what is veiled. And we, as deputies, are still losing, because we have neither the time nor the resources to do PR, “charge” the media, run around different communities shouting “betrayal” and so on. We have now come up with a bill that is vital to hundreds of thousands of people, and everyone who thinks not only about themselves and their pockets – supports, others are engaged in demagoguery. “
Shulyak also clarified the issue on project documentation under this bill.
“I urge you not to fall victim to such deep manipulation, because the bill does not change any procedures in construction at all. Any object in the bill will go through the same chain as it is now, and passed in the pre-war period. From the collection of source data at the start of construction (then design, examination, obtaining permits) and before construction.
I tried for a long time to understand what we were talking about. Do you want the law to have a separate rule on financing the work of specific architects? While no one has canceled the current procedures for obtaining permits. As well as payment for the work of architects. Suppose you are a person who has lost his home. Well, you do not want to sign a hundred contracts, including a developer, architect, engineer, expert et cetera! And they shout at us: “The customer must be a citizen!”. But a citizen cannot be a customer, because he does not know and does not understand which architectural office to work with, where to conduct expertise and which builder is high quality… However, we are all persistently brought into a circle of nonsense, on the one hand, undermining the government is doing it, and on the other hand, it is shaking up the architectural community itself, “Shulyak said.
