People's deputy from the "Servant of the People" party, Olena Shuliak, said in an interview with "Glavkom" that the VR Disciplinary Commission should pay attention to MPs supporting the UOC.
Commenting on the reluctance of MPs to vote for the UOC ban, Shuliak noted that "if something goes beyond their powers, it is already a reason to pay attention to their professional suitability and ability to effectively perform their duties."
"If someone is intimidated with 'divine retribution', one should turn to the disciplinary commission and initiate a consideration of the issue," she added.
As reported, Stefanchuk refused to send the bill on the UOC ban to the Venice Commission.
