The fact that as a result of the ongoing war, the state budget of Ukraine is experiencing a significant shortage of funds, and social assistance payments may be reduced after the introduction of a new mechanism for supporting citizens, NBN writes, citing information voiced by the head of the parliamentary committee on economic development, member faction “Servant of the People” by Dmytro Natalukha in an interview for Ukrinform.
According to Natalukha, the current support system is based on the approach of the 80-90s of the last century, that is, it is an outdated “Soviet legacy” “, included in the “Constitution”, which states that Ukraine is a social state that provides expanded social guarantees to the population.
However, the people's deputy believes the volume of the above social services (apparently, we are talking about pensions and subsidies) the government should significantly reduce by reviewing the current algorithm of social payments and creating another, “more balanced system that will take into account new realities.”
Earlier, we wrote about how the size of pensions will increase after March indexing.
