To restore social justice

31.05.2017

On the eve of the plenary session, members of the "Obnovlenie" (Renewal) parliamentary faction discussed the main issues on the agenda. Members of the "Obnovlenie" expressed their opinion with regard to the law-in-draft drafted by Deputy Galina Antyfeeva. The parliamentarian proposes to amend the law "On additional guarantees for the social protection of orphans and children left without parental care". In accordance with the basic law, when a city does not have the opportunity to provide housing for orphans and children left without parental care, they should be allocated place in the hostel or a commercial lease of a dwelling.

Another socially significant law-in-draft is supported by the legislators-innovators, developed by the vice-speaker Galina Antyfeeva on behalf of the President Vadim Krasnoselsky. Changes are proposed to be included in the law "On Social Protection of Veterans and Persons of Retirement Age". The basis for drafting the law-in-draft was the numerous appeals of pensioners - citizens of the PMR, permanently residing in the republic, receiving a pension outside our country. Currently, this category of citizens is deprived of benefits for payment of public utilities. The author believes that this law-in-draft will restore social justice and these citizens who have worked for the benefit of the republic for several decades, will also receive benefits.

Deputies of the Committee on Social Policy, Health, Labor, Family and Childhood Issues Ilya Vasiliev, Vladimir Pelin and Sergei Cheban, on behalf of the President Vadim Krasnoselsky, drafted a law-in-draft extending the circle of persons who can receive savings. It is about children whose parents died, and the right to receive payment has passed to them by inheritance. Citizens in a difficult financial situation apply the head of the state, as well as to people's representatives, wishing to receive these payments. Deputies-renovators intend to support the law-in-draft in the first reading.
