The Cabinet of Ministers entrusted the functions of the formation and implementation of state policy in the field of tourism and resorts (except for state supervision) to the Ministry of Infrastructure.

The Ministry of Infrastructure will oversee the State Agency for Tourism Development (instead of the Ministry of Culture). The corresponding decision was made at a government meeting on Wednesday, September 8th, Interfax-Ukraine reports.

The project itself is designed to ensure the comprehensive development of infrastructure, in particular tourism.

The State Agency for Tourism Development will organize advertising river tourist trips Kyiv-Kanev-Kyiv and Kyiv-Chornobyl-Kyiv, two voyages for each route.

The State Agency for Tourism Development is the central executive body that implements state policy in the field of tourism and resorts in Ukraine.
