By signing the Aarhus Convention and the Association Agreement with the EU, Ukraine has committed itself to adapting domestic legislation conforming European standards concerning environmental impact assessment. To fulfill international obligations, the Law “On Environmental Impact Assessment” was adopted by Ukraine. However, under this law of Ukraine, not all objects and activities having impact on the environment are assessed for their environmental impact, but only those having a significant impact on the environment are assessed. The aim of this article is to analyse the legislation of Ukraine on environmental impact assessment, and to compare it with the EU legislation. Special attention is paid to the judicial practice being adopted while implementing the said law. With the help of a case study, the shortcomings of the Ukrainian legislation are analysed and highlighted.

The purpose of the article is to identify the positive experience of Slovakia in the field of legal liability of medical workers, which has been successful in practice and therefore worth following, both in Ukraine and in other states. To achieve this purpose, general and special scientific research methods were used, in particular dialectical, historical-legal, systematic, and comparative legal methods. The legal regulation of liability for the provision of medical services constantly generates debate in scientific circles and in practical implementation. The legislation of Ukraine does not regulate concepts such as medical mistakes and medical crimes. The lack of regulatory criteria for medical mistakes and crimes, the difficulty in determining the cause and effect relationship, as well as the need for professional supervision in the provision of medical services, encourages the study of foreign experience, mainly the experience of the European Union Member States in this field.
