The Ukrainian Congress did not update the rules for the use of civil protection shelters since their adoption in 2018, which probably led to the outdance of the document in the context of a full -scale war. The government has declared its intention to review these rules.
One of the incidents that emphasized the problem occurred in Kiev on December 14: a school guard of the school in Svyatoshinsky district refused access to the shelter to two children during air anxiety because they had a dog with them. This has led to pre -trial investigation and outrage.
Legislative rules that prohibit the bringing of animals to shelters have summoned problems. The headmaster states that they were in force within the established rules, where it was forbidden to let animals, but discussion against the background of the incident caused a reaction from the prosecutor's office, the educational ombudsman and local authorities.
The head of the regional administration Sergey Popko stated that personal participation in the situation would be taken. Minister of Education and Science Oksen Lisovy emphasized the need for a humane approach in such situations and promised to revise the order governing the use of shelters in such cases.
Activists advise to negotiate with the shelters of shelters and to resolve the issues of animals in advance. It should be borne in mind that the normative documents have been approved for a full -scale invasion in 2018, and some provisions may lose relevance in the changed conditions.
The government promises to initiate a review of a legal act in order to take into account modern realities and to provide effective protection of citizens in the event of a military exacerbation.
