90th returned. Together with "resuscitation" rules, banned in the distant 1996, to return to the practice of "setting on the counter." Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine introduced to the Verkhovna Rada a draft law on introducing amendments to Article 2 of the Law of Ukraine "On temporary ban on enforcement of Ukrainian citizens penalties for late payment for housing and communal services " (under the action of the Act). The bill is registered under number 7013 of July 23, 2010The text of the bill has not yet been made public.
Recall the above-mentioned Act of 13 November 1996 may not charge a penalty for late payment of rent and pay for housing and communal services (HCS) to address the failure of the State obligation to pay salaries, pensions, stipends and other payments.
Recall also that the Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Tigipko reported 21 July that the government will soon be determined with the size of penalties for late payment of rent and pay for the housing.He expressed the opinion that you should not do these large fines.
It should be noted that the rule of "communal fines" dates back to Soviet times, when the state followed the regular payment of salaries. The rule does not operate even during the economic boom 2004-2008., Accompanied by a rise in living standards. Now, in times of crisis, the introduction in Parliament of a bill can be considered as a declaration of war on people who are unable to pay debts because of delays in salary. It should be noted that the "utility fines" shall not apply in one state, self-proclaimed social.In some EU countries (including France) legislation protects the interests of just citizens: a delay of salary entitles you to postpone the implementation of tax payments.
Sergei Tigipko: "... And now this talk of liberal for the payment, we must stop. Pay to all! .. "
