In Ukraine I want to introduce mandatory registration of mobile phone numbers

And to revive the practice of conducting a database of unique identifiers IMEI-codes

The state provides compulsory registration of all mobile subscribers in Ukraine.

The corresponding bill published on the website of the State.

The state offers to keep customers, mobile operators have the right to conclude a contract in written or any other form. But it is going to oblige Telecom companies to collect personal data of all users, without exception.

On the idea of State, and other agencies since the adoption of the law will only have three months to adapt its regulations.
