Russia: wanted to index pensions of new category of citizens

Deputy chairman of the chamber of young legislators at the Council of the Federation Ilya Skelegin wanted to release the heads of the Councils of apartment buildings from the payment of insurance premiums into social funds. This is reported by the “Parliamentary Newspaper” with reference to the first deployment of the budget committee of the Council of State Sergey Rabukhin.

The publication notes that many older houses are pensioners. At the same time, the deductions to the social insurance fund actually translates this category of citizens into the category of working retirees, which are not indexing pensions.

Senator pointed out that some management companies pay older “salary in envelopes” homes. It is not only about the elderly Russians, but also those who have not achieved retirement age. “We want to legalize such payments so that everything is legal,” explained Ryabukhin.

He expressed the opinion that the innovation would lead to minor losses of the consolidated budget. However, the indirect effect of the content of housing stock and guidance will be big.

Earlier in March, the Minister of Labor and Social Protection Anton Kotyakov announced the preparation of proposals for indexing pensions to working retirees. Pensions working retirees ceased to raise back in 2016. The reason for this was called savings of the pension fund budget.
