United Russia proposed to give preferential mortgages not to officials, but to workers in the defense industry

State Duma deputies from United Russia sent a proposal to the Ministry of Finance to provide preferential mortgages to employees of the military-industrial complex. It is also proposed to extend the measure to secondary housing in cities where there is no primary housing, and to the construction of houses. The deputies want to introduce preferential mortgages for defense industry workers in exchange for a similar measure being discussed for officials.

One of the authors of the letter was a member of the State Duma Committee on Construction and Housing and Utilities Alexander Yakubovsky, reports “News”. The newspaper does not specify who else signed the appeal to the Ministry of Finance.

“It is possible to talk about any encouragement of civil servants and officials only in case of their special merits in the NVO zone. In all the rest, such things will wait for our victory,” said Mr. Yakubovsky. In his opinion, civil servants can wait until, for example, all orphans are provided with housing. The deputy believes that people who “assemble tanks in factories in three shifts” deserve much more support measures.

According to the deputies, 500 million rubles are needed to implement their proposal. They noted that the military-industrial complex needs qualified workers in more than 20 specialties. According to the authors of the appeal, in the near future the shortage of personnel may amount to about 400 thousand people.

That the Ministry of Finance plans to offer the government a preferential mortgage for federal civil servants, March 27 informed RBC. It has been argued that the idea of ​​subsidizing the mortgage interest rate for officials has been worked out for two years, but it has detractors. Officially, the authorities did not deny or confirm this information.
