Alexander Shcherba, "We will not increase taxes for the real sector of the economy and citizens"

By decision of the Presidium of the Supreme Council, the next meetings will be held on September 27 and October 4. The main issues on the agenda of tomorrow's plenary meeting will be legislations of a tax nature. They are in the sphere of view and discussion of the deputy corps from the very beginning of the autumn session. According to the current legal norms, tax legislations must be adopted by the parliament, signed by the president and published in the official media before October 1. Then they will come into force January 1, 2018, with the beginning not only of the calendar, but also of the new fiscal year.

Alexander Shcherba, in an interview with parliamentary journalists, reported on joining efforts, holding consultations with the Government as part of fulfilling the president's instruction to establish closer cooperation with our strategic partner, Russia, in search of additional opportunities to form a balanced budget of the republic.

Today's meeting of the Presidium of the Supreme Council was devoted not only to consideration of legislations to be discussed tomorrow, but also to the agenda. In particular, the deputy corps began to consider the initiative of a group of parliamentarians to amend the Constitution. They are dictated by the need to increase the status of the prosecutor's office as an enforcement agency that will be part of the overall law enforcement system.

A number of legislations of a social nature, as well as draft laws regulating the functioning of local authorities, have been worked out in committees of the Supreme Council and will be submitted to the deputy corps for consideration in subsequent plenary sessions.

The plans of lawmaking work include - the introduction of amendments to the law on the republican budget for the current year. It is planned to increase the expenditure part of the state treasury in the amount of approximately 3 million rubles, which were issued as loans to disabled participants in the protection of Pridnestrovie. The state covered 14% of the loan rate. The size of loans amounted to 5 to 70 thousand rubles, depending on the age of the borrower.

Deputies of the profile parliamentary committee on social policy do not recommend the deputy corps to adopt the amendments, proposed by a group of parliamentarians on the organization and implementation of guardianship (trusteeship) activities in the PMR. Their essence can be summarized by saying that a civil contract for the transfer of housing in exchange for caring for citizens can be concluded only with the consent of the guardianship and trusteeship bodies. People's deputies from among the members of the responsible committee suppose that this is a restriction of the constitutional rights of citizens in establishing civil-law relations.

The subject of consideration of the deputy corps in the near future will also be the government's proposed changes to the norms of the Marriage and Family Code. They are aimed at protecting the rights of minors and consist in tightening the requirements for the procedure for the adoption of orphans, as well as children left without parental care, by foreign citizens. The legislative initiative is based on the complexity of checking the living conditions of Pridnestrovian minors adopted by citizens of other states, which lasts three years.
