“Today we must make a decision on allocating over 15 billion roubles to 60 regions for an inflation-based salary adjustment. In addition, part of these funds will be used to reimburse some territories in the Far North and in the Far East for fuel and electricity expenses. There is also a proposal to channel an additional 7.2 billion roubles into priority projects in the regions, including housing, roads, sport and social facilities and so on.”
