The Quarantine Period Support Measures

Amendments to the PMR Law “On measures of state support in connection with the introduction of a state of emergency and (or) restrictive measures (quarantine) aimed at preventing the spread of coronavirus infections caused by a new type of COVID-19 virus in 2020 and 2021” are among the issues that the deputies of the Committee on Economic Policy are preparing for consideration in the course of one of the next plenary meetings. The deputies discussed measures to support both the population and businesses.

We are talking in particular about the suspension and prohibition of initiating planned measures for control and supervision against legal entities and individual entrepreneurs for a period established by the Operational Headquarters.

Tenants of municipal or state property are proposed to be exempted from rent for the period of the ban on the implementation of activities or the presence of a direct ban on the implementation of the activities of the leased object.

Individual entrepreneurs who have suspended their activities due to the restrictions imposed continue to receive monetary compensation and get the opportunity to recalculate the paid (accrued) tax payments. Recalculation of the unified social and personal income taxes is provided for temporarily suspended activities of legal entities operating under a simplified taxation system.

It is proposed in addition to resume the issuance of food packages or compensation for them for children with food benefits for the period of distance learning.

These and other amendments aimed at providing support measures will be submitted to the plenary for consideration.
