“…The genesis of the formation and development of legal regulation of the construction industry in Ukraine was formed under the complex influence of numerous political, social and systemic legal factors and covers separate periods of development: I (IX – early XIV centuries) – the period of existence of Kyivan Rus and feudal fragmentation in the Ukrainian lands, codification of construction legislation and workshop organisation of construction, but almost all construction activities were of a "defensive" nature; II (XIV – XVI centuries) – the period when Ukrainian lands were under the rule of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Poland – the beginning of development planning, taking into account the successful use of territories, ensuring the proper functioning of military and administrative facilities, as well as fire safety; III (XVI – XVIIІ centuries) - the existence of the Cossack-Hetman state – legal regulation and management of construction was limited to purely technical works aimed at strengthening the defence capability of the Zaporozhian Army, therefore it was of exclusively strategic importance; IV (late 18th – early 20th century) – the period when Ukrainian lands were under the rule of the Austrian (Austro-Hungarian) and Russian Empires – the creation of the first specialised agencies authorised to issue permits for certain types of economic activity and to supervise and control construction; V (early twentieth century – 1991) – the period when Ukraine was part of the USSR – a gradual transition to industrial construction methods; consolidation of construction organisations; improvement of design and estimate documentation; growth in labour productivity, quality of work and the formation of the first trade unions at construction enterprises and associations; subsequently, the unification of functions between the main participants in construction – the customer and the contractor – led to a reduction in the contractor's liability; adoption of the first consolidated regulatory act – the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offences – aimed at regulating administrative and legal relations in the construction sector; Period VI (from 24 August 1991 to the present) – the period of modern Ukraine – consists of two stages 1) in terms of regulatory development, it was marked by the active development of the national legislative framework, and in terms of functionality – by a total reduction in demand for construction products, inflation, which led to a decrease in working capital, imperfect depreciation policy and massive fraud in the housing market; 2) definition of national standards and rules for construction, emergence of new norms in the sectoral legislation and establishment of various sanctions for their violation, formation of the institutional system of the construction industry with subsequent winding up, reorganisation, etc. …”
