Results of meeting of the UNBA Committee on mediation |
|
On 17 June 2016 a regular meeting of the UNBA Committee on mediation took place. Before opening the meeting, the Committee member Tetyana Barabash made a presentation to other participants, in which she described the mediation procedure in the classical form and drew the participants’ attention to the importance of mediation procedures in the practice of law. During the meeting, the Committee also discussed the need for making changes to the draft law "On mediation", which is now pending in the Parliament, as well as changes to the Law of Ukraine "On the Bar and Practice of Law" regarding the performance by an advocate of mediator’s functions. A lively discussion was provoked by a presentation made by Mr Stanislav Skrypnyk, Deputy Chairman of the Committee, concerning the list of NGOs promoting mediation and possible further cooperation with them in order to promote mediation procedures among advocates. Mr Volodymyr Sytyuk, the Committee Chairman, and Mr Oleksandr Drozdov, member of the Committee, expressed the proposal for an expansion of mediation procedure among advocates. It was decided to hold the first seminar on mediation in early autumn 2016 for all advocates wishing to learn more about this procedure. The participants also discussed the need for conducting mediation procedures among advocates who cannot find understanding between themselves and for approving the relevant mediation procedure. |
