Vadim Kravchuk, "Each budget ruble is under account"

When the country adopted the main financial document for this year, the deputies of the Supreme Council adopted a norm on the proposal of the government, which allows spending the funds of the Road Fund not on the basis of tenders, but on the so-called request for proposals. Among the skeptics of the effectiveness of this approach is the parliamentarian Vadim Kravchuk.

The decisions in the legislature are made by the majority - as a result, the government's proposal was supported. With a reservation - to see and understand how this mechanism will be applied during the year.

Vadim Kravchuk is a supporter of spending public money by using such a market mechanism as competition. When all information about the use of funds becomes public, accessible to all payers in the targeted budget funds and the budget itself. In this case, each taxpayer knows and understands how the state uses his money, for what needs. Today, this information has the opportunity to use a limited number of individuals. This is wrong and inefficient, it is inappropriate, according to the people's deputies of residents of Rybnitsa.

A special case of the formation of the Road Fund and the expenditure of its funds is transformed into a global issue of the functioning of the procurement institute for the needs of the state. Deputies of the Supreme Council in past convocations have repeatedly tried to approach him, but it did not happen. This system in Russia is already in place, it is being improved in the course of implementation of legislative norms. In particular, the punishment for non-compliance is toughened. Vadim Kravchuk is one of the authors of the law-in-draft "On Public Procurement in Pridnestrovie", which passed the first reading procedure in the parliament.

According to the people's deputy, the existing system of public procurement allows the managers of public funds to treat differently the organization of holding tenders or competitions both among municipal customers and among state customers. Therefore, deputies decided to follow the path of the entire civilized world, when the state takes control of the procurement system, establishes uniform rules for conducting them throughout the republic. What is attractive in this system is that it becomes open to the whole society. To this end, an electronic public procurement portal is created, which every interested person, any citizen who does not even participate in all these tenders, competitions and auctions, can see, and what does the state buy from it for its needs, at what price? This is an effective element that will allow every citizen of the republic to participate in spending the budget, of which we all are donors.

Electronic bidding immediately enter will not work, as it is already practiced in these states, - there is no material and technical base of course. There is a prerequisite for this. The first thing that is proposed is to create a unified system of public procurement. The official electronic portal contains information on what, for example, is purchased by the state administrations of Kamenka, Slobodzeya or Tiraspol, or centrally for the needs of a particular ministry or agency. This electronic database is open to any supplier who may wish to participate in competitive procedures, as well as for any citizen of the republic who wants to know how much and for what amount the goods were purchased for the state, services were provided.

The second no less important factor of the legislative initiative of a group of deputies is the reliability of risk management. According to the developers of the law-in-draft "On Public Procurement in the PMR", it is necessary to plan all state expenditures in advance, before the beginning of the fiscal year, and not to do it after the fact. All this information should be open to all.

The third point is the desire of the authors of the law-in-draft to reduce the level of corruption manifestations, the very notorious subjective approach to making a decision on public procurement. Important decisions for the state and society related to public expenditure cannot and should not be accepted by one person. They must be objective, open and accepted in accordance with the norms prescribed in the law. The responsibility for non-fulfillment of these procedures will be personal.

And the main goal of the law-in-draft is to achieve transparency in public procurement. Every citizen of the PMR, in accordance with the Constitution, should know how, where and why his funds are being used, which get into the budget by paying taxes.
