It is noted positively that overall, the Draft Amendments uses gender neutral drafting. However, on some occurrences, certain provisions still use only the male gender. This is not in line with general international practice, which requires legislation to be drafted in a gender neutral manner. It is recommended to review the respective provisions and avoid the use of the male gender (such as reference to “он”/he or “его/ему”/his) by replacing relevant wording with, as appropriate, the plural or other gender-neutral formulation.
