Moratorium or discussion: how to stop legislation's “berserk printing machine”
The number of laws adopted by Parliament is growing every year, and Russians simply do not have time to adjust to the new "rules of the game." And the chaotic rewriting of existing legal codes only complicates doing business. For example, amendments to the Tax Code are introduced on average once every two weeks, and it is every ten days for the Code of Administrative Offenses. This is the conclusion reached by experts at the Center for Strategic Research (CSR), run by Alexei Kudrin, who analyzed changes in federal legislation over the past two decades. They suggest a variety of ways to deal with the instability with regulations, from the "humane", like engaging in dialogue between factions when discussing initiatives, to the “comprehensive”, like putting a moratorium on amending existing laws.
