The team of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine has initiated the reformatting of territorial centers for recruitment and social support into a new structure called Reserve+ Offices; the idea is already being discussed at the state level.<\/p>\n

According to the developments, the new units should have separate recruitment offices and support offices, the publication Ukrainska Pravda<\/a><\/em> reports.<\/p>\n

Recruitment offices will be responsible for keeping records of persons liable for military service, planning mobilization campaigns, recruitment and processing for service. In public spaces it is planned to open recruitment points, and in separate premises \u2014 recruitment hubs for volunteers and persons liable for service who will be brought in by the police.<\/p>\n

In these hubs they plan to check documents, conduct military medical examinations, and also assess candidates’ mental resilience and professional suitability.<\/p>\n

Support offices are to focus on the social component: processing compensation for wounded servicemembers, one\u2011time payments to families of the deceased and organizing burials. Some procedures are planned to be moved to a digital format to simplify and speed up interactions.<\/p>\n

According to a source in the military leadership, the TCCs currently provide the armed forces with more than 30<\/strong> thousand mobilized personnel and contract servicemembers per month, so discussion participants do not want to dismantle the existing system, and a key contentious question remains who should deliver men from the street to the TCCs: the Ministry of Defence proposed to place this function exclusively on the police without military involvement, but the police opposed this, and there is no final agreement yet.<\/p>\n

Current legal norms stipulate that only police officers are authorized to detain and deliver persons liable for military service to the TCCs.<\/p>\n

Representatives of the Ministry of Defence, the General Staff and the Office of the President continue to refine the reform concept; no specific launch dates have been set yet. Proposals are not recorded in either draft laws or government resolutions, and amendments to the drafts are being made almost daily.<\/p>\n
