Gov't to receive finalized draft 2009 budget
RBC, 25.03.2009, Moscow 09:33:46.The government expects to receive the finalized draft amendments to the federal budget for 2009 and the period until 2011 on March 25, in order to be committed to the State Duma. After March 19 debates, the government commissioned the Finance Ministry to give finishing touches to the document. Apart from changes induced by the anti-crisis program, the new budget will feature new parameters resulting from the focus on social support. For instance, the cabinet wanted special attention to be paid to budget assignments for pensions, benefits and compensations to dismissed military personnel. The budget will also provide for more money to be assigned to the Summer Universiades to be held in Kazan in 2013 and student loans. Additionally, the budget of designing a joint Russian-Indian transport aircraft will be boosted.
