Deputies from the Servant of the People faction registered a bill which proposes to allow Ukrainians to change their middle name along with their first and last names.
According to the authors of bill No. 2450, which refer to the decision of the European Court of Human Rights, the inability to change the middle name limits the rights of Ukrainians, which is a violation of the Constitution.
It is proposed to amend the Civil and Family Code, which will allow persons from 16 years of age at their discretion to change their last name and (or) their first name and (or) middle name.
Persons over 14 years old will be able to do the same with parental consent.. It is reported by LIGABusinessInform.
