A group of People's Deputies proposes to amend the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses and establish responsibility for manifestations of sexism in society.
Corresponding bill №4599 people's deputies registered in the parliament.
The draft law proposes to expand the circle of offenders for whom administrative detentions are carried out, adding "sexism".
As noted in the explanatory note, the draft law is aimed at establishing administrative responsibility, the terms of imposing administrative charges in the event of sexism, as well as providing internal affairs bodies, in particular the National Police, with the authority to carry out administrative detention of a person who has committed such an offense.
This draft law is directly related to the draft law (No. 4598) "On Amendments to Some Legislative Acts of Ukraine on the Prohibition of Manifested Sexism in Society", which introduces the concept of "sexism" and establishes a ban on its manifestation, also registered in the Verkhovna Rada.
