Krasnodar, 3 December. At the 46th session of the regional Legislative Assembly held last week in Krasnodar, the deputies reportedly adopted the first reading of the law on the regional budget for the following three years.
The revenues were assessed in the total sum of 288.7 billion roubles; the expenses were estimated at 301.2 billion roubles.
Speaking at the session, Kuban Governor Veniamin Kondratiev said that despite the adoption of a deficit budget, the authority will not be going to cut the main programs: “The social sphere will remain our top priority – 213.9 billion roubles, or 71% of the [regional] budget will be going to cover it, which will let us not only preserve but increase the financial backup of certain activities.”
Of this money, 57.4 billion roubles will be spent to cover social payments, including maternity capital, children’s allowances, reimbursements of payments for public utilities, and privileges to veterans; 35.2 billion roubles will go to cover the construction and reconstruction of major social and communal projects.
In his comment, LA Chairman Yuri Burlachko noted that the current pandemic had introduced certain changes, so the losses borne by the economy this year will continue to tell upon for a certain while.
