The Supreme Council adopted in the first reading amendments to the law "On additional measures aimed at stabilizing the economy of the PMR" a week ago. It is based on the desire to substitute the state shoulder for the main taxpayers - industrial enterprises. The state is ready to assume partial subsidization of the interest rate (7%) on bank loans for the netting of income tax on credit institutions. "Long" and relatively cheap loans will allow our enterprises to develop by modernizing production. This will be followed by new jobs, increased output and tax deductions.
As part of the second reading of the law-in-draft, a controversy appeared regarding the two proposed amendments. One was proposed by the deputies of the economy committee, the other by deputy Oleg Leontiev.
Alexander Korshunov said that previously these functions were assigned to the government-authorized body. The position of the members of the responsible committee was supported by representatives of the Cabinet of Ministers, the banking community and the Union of Industrialists of Agrarians and Entrepreneurs of Pridnestrovie.
Another point of view was expressed by Deputy Oleg Leontiev. He supposes that the body that determines compliance with the conditions for the provision of loans should be the supervisory board of the state reserve fund, whose activities are regulated by a special law.
Supporters and opponents of both amendments made their own arguments.
As the parliamentarian Vadim Doni reminded, decisions are taken collectively in the supervisory board of the state reserve fund.
The majority of deputies voted for the amendment of Oleg Leontyev.
