It has been reported earlier that the bill is to amend Article 41 of the Code of inland waterway transport for resolving issues related to establishing a pilot service firm in inland waterway transport.
Also, a draft law is aimed at bringing the articles 6 and 58 of the Code in accordance with the articles 4 and 6 of the Federal Law "On natural monopolies" in terms of government regulation of the services to use inland waterways and river ports infrastructure.
