The Committee on Regional Policy, Local Self-Government and Housing and Utilities has completed work on preparing for consideration in the second final reading of the law-in-draft amending the norms of the Housing Code. Earlier the initiative was initiated by the deputy of the Supreme Council Grigory Dyachenko. The parliamentarian proposed to prescribe that the right to be in the preferential queue for improving housing conditions should be retained by the family after the death of a participant in the hostilities to protect the PMR. The law-in-draft was adopted by the Supreme Council in the first reading.
Amendments were proposed to the second reading. They specify that the right to remain in the priority queue is reserved for the widows of participants in the hostilities to protect the PMR. It is also proposed to extend the rule to the widows of combatants in Afghanistan (between April 1978 and February 15, 1989) who died in peacetime; however, not remarried. This opinion was supported by the deputies of the Committee. They will be able to be in the preferential queue for improving housing conditions from the date of registration of the spouse.
Amendments to the law-in-draft on adjusting the norms of the Housing Code, prepared by the relevant committee, will be considered by the deputies at one of the plenary sessions.
