Parliament has accepted Maryna Lazebna's resignation from the post of social policy minister, Voice faction MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak has said.

The decision was supported by 277 MPs.

Sources told LB.ua that parliament might soon consider the head of the department for social policy and health care of the presidential office, Oksana Zholnovych, for social policy minister.

When parliament dismissed five cabinet ministers in November, Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal insisted at a meeting with President Zelenskyy in Truskavets that Lazebna should stay.
