Pishevik untied the hands

Under pressure from the WTO, Ukraine abolished the compulsory certification of products that allow manufacturers to save time and money on bureaucratic procedures and make ordinary citizens more vulnerable to food experimentation as a local factories, and from low-quality imports.

manufacturers of food products the government presented a New Year gift. The Cabinet approved a decree "On the Abolition of the individual items of the list of products subject to compulsory certification in Ukraine." Document countermand Gospotrebstandarta of 2005 who received certification of 17 groups of products: tea, coffee, butter and sunflower oils, dairy, meat and confectionery, canned goods, etc. In the list of products that continue to be certified, the officials left only the most "strategic": baby food and vodka.

The Ministry of Economy, which is and has pioneered the project, explained that the cancellation of polls certification explains Ukraine"s attempt to harmonize its legislation with the European. Our country has committed to gradually abolish, or at least significantly reduce the list of products subject to mandatory certification is for WTO accession, but still lingered, although the relevant draft resolutions quoted more than once. Untie the hands of entrepreneurs officials prevented an avalanche of criticism from the public and industry associations, who argue that this step will lead to a deterioration in the quality of local products and open its border to imports of low quality. To expedite the process, the World Bank launched the abolition of the compulsory certification as one of the main conditions for our country to repay the loan budget deficit of $ 500 million

opportunity not to certify their products will allow manufacturers to save a lot of time, effort and money. According to head of department of quality confectionery company "AVK" Oleg Sukhorukov, carrying out this procedure takes up to three months. In Gospotrebstandarta reported that the cost of testing varies from one to 10% of the price of the goods. In the past year, employers paid for the certificates of 40 million grn.

However, the possibility not to provide the goods for inspection will allow companies to save not only directly in the certification procedure, but also on the composition of products. In Gospotrebstandarta not exclude that its quality deteriorates, as the complex this issue now will not deal with any agency. We can only guess what experiments would be conducted with the stomachs of Ukrainian producers: it has recently, despite the total certification of all food, they manage to shove there almost half of the periodic table. A new government initiative unleashes and importers, which will now be able to freely bring into the territory of our country any good quality.

Oleg Sukhorukov believes that such fears are exaggerated, because there are other quality control mechanisms, in particular, the introduction of the enterprises with international standards ISO 22000:2005 and ISO 9001:2008. The latter, however, are not mandatory for manufacturers.

In the future, the question of quality control of foodstuffs state plans to solve, written procedures for conformity assessment of products of domestic and foreign origin technical regulations. The project "Technical Regulations on the modules of conformity assessment procedures and principles of marking the national mark of conformity, to be used in technical regulations on conformity, which is essentially an alternative certification has been developed. But when it will be adopted and what by then will have time to feed the country"s citizens - can not vouch for nobody.
