Description

In 2008 Russian President Dmitriy Medvedev declared that Russian civil legislation needs significant improvement and update as most parts of the Russian Civil Code were prepared and adopted in early 1990-ies. President Medvedev had signed the respective Decree #1108, which outlined the main directions of improvement. In November of 2010 Council on codification and development of the civil legislation under the Russian President has prepared draft laws that amend Russian Civil Code. The suggested changes indeed significantly modify Russian civil legislation and in parts such changes are fundamental (e.g. the new classification of the commercial legal entities: public and non-public).

This Working Group is created to prepare the detailed document with comments and suggestions from the business-community to the suggested changes. Association of European Businesses strongly supports the development of the Russian legal system and improvements of the Russian civil legislation in particular, however, we believe that the improvement trends (actions) should in no way harm the existing business climate and relationships. On the contrary, all the changes should lead to the improvement of the state regulation and development of the business climate. Thus the Working Group on amendments to the Russian Civil Code of the Association of European Businesses should actively participate in the discussion of the proposed amendments and contribute its valuable expertise.

Working Group’s Objectives:

The members of the Working Group will chose the parts (sections) of the draft laws that they are willing to comment and duly notify of it the Coordinator of the Working Group. The coordinator shall notify all other members of the Working Group.

The member-company shall receive comments/suggestions/questions regarding the part (s) (sections) it has chosen to comment. After such comments/suggestions/questions are received, the company should prepare a consolidated table of comments in the following manner:

Предложение законопроекта	Комментарии	Предлагаемая редакция
…	…	…

When companies prepare their respective part (s) (sections) it should be then approved by the Working Group. Only those part (s) (sections) approved by the Working Group in whole shall be considered valid.
