The document is the result of 1,5 year of monitoring the processes of adopting the Law, analyzing attempts to implement it and practice of its application. We seek to make the problems outlined in this report the subject of discussions and further changes in the current legislation regarding social and legal protection of illegally deprived Ukrainian citizens, as well as in the approaches of the Minreintegration to the procedure of establishing the fact of deprivation of personal liberty as a result of russian armed aggression against Ukraine, and the CMU to provide all the types of assistance guaranteed by the Law to such persons.
