About this reported representative of the government in the parliament, Taras Melnychuk. According to the adopted document, those who speak English at a level not lower than B2 according to the scale of the European Council for Language Education (CEFR) will receive the allowance. The resolution will enter into force together with the sixth part of Article 4 of the law "On the use of the English language in Ukraine" after the termination or abolition of martial law and will be in effect for four years. This decision applies to contract servicemen, heads and deputies of local state administrations, middle- and senior-level police officers, senior staff of law enforcement agencies and civil protection services, prosecutors, managers and members of executive bodies and supervisory boards of state-owned enterprises, as well as officials of companies where the state owns more than 50% of the authorized capital. In addition, the heads of state scientific institutions, institutions of higher education, as well as employees of the sphere of education and science will receive the allowance. We will remind that in June 2024 the Verkhovna Rada adopted the law "On the use of the English language in Ukraine", which establishes its status as one of the languages of international communication. The document obliges certain categories of civil servants, military and police officers to speak English.
