The social Issues

The main issue on the agenda of the Committee's meeting was a package of legislations, placed for consideration by the President. It's about the proposal of the President to pay extra to retirees, whose pension is less than 1232 rubles. The compensation data will be paid only to non-working pensioners receiving a minimum pension. There are 30 thousand 60 people in the republic. Monthly compensation will be up to 100 rubles a month. Money for additional payments will be allocated from the republican budget. By the end of the year, the total amount of expenditures will amount to more than 24 million rubles.

Today the amendments were discussed at the meeting of the Committee. By the second reading, they received more than ten. The proposal to specify the term "non-working pensioner" was discussed, as well as to include in this category citizens who issued a patent, but do not extract profits from the patent activity.

The final decision is up to the deputy corps. The profile committee recommended the package of legislations for adoption in the second reading.

Among the discussed issues there is a law-in-draft developed by Galina Antyufeeva. The legislator offered to provide benefits for paying for public services to citizens who are disabled and live in Pridnestrovie for a lengthy registration. Currently, benefits apply only to citizens who have a residence permit or registration at the place of residence in the republic. Amendments are proposed to the law "On the social protection of disabled people".

Deputies of the responsible committee recommended the law-in-draft for adoption in the first reading.
