Prospect: Military personnel are offered housing for three years
CrimeaPRESS reports:
An important bill for many citizens, reports «Russian newspaper»submitted to the State Duma. A group of legislators led by Sergei Mironov propose to include in the law a deadline for providing military personnel with housing or money to buy it. This is a serious step, since the law currently does not specify any deadlines during which military personnel and their families will have their own housing.
As legislators clarify, according to current regulations, the period for providing military personnel with housing is “not established” in the law. So the families of military personnel will clearly be closely monitoring the passage of the bill.
According to the authors of the document, changes must be made to paragraph 1 of clause 1 of article 15 of the Federal Law «On the Status of Military Personnel» (dated May 27, 1998, No. 76-FZ). If the proposed innovation becomes law, then military personnel will be able to obtain housing as property or under a social rental agreement, or money for the purchase or construction of residential premises within 3 years from the date of registration.
The explanatory documents to the text of the bill emphasize that today the waiting period for housing subsidies from the moment military personnel are recognized as needy exceeds 6 years. So the proposal of the legislators concerns many people and an extremely sensitive situation. After all, for the absolute majority of military personnel, their own home is, first of all, peace of mind for the family. This, let’s face it, is the number of children and a reliable rear, which is extremely important during and after service.
As the authors of the bill rightly assert, at present, until they receive housing subsidies, career military personnel and citizens discharged into the reserves are offered to live in rented housing, for which monetary compensation is provided.
This, in turn, entails additional budgetary expenses and, by and large, does not solve the problem of providing military personnel and their families with housing, legislators emphasize.
The document in question has already been reviewed by the government of the country and they have said what, in their opinion, needs to be improved and how. So the draft law submitted to the State Duma has already been improved taking into account the comments indicated in the government’s conclusion. The Cabinet of Ministers emphasized another important point.
Among other things, the amendments specified the following circumstance. Military personnel and members of their families who are not provided with housing in populated areas where military units are located, where they are serving, are included in the established order in the lists of those in need of specialized housing and are provided with them no later than three months from the date of arrival at the new place of service.
