Siluanov's hearing replies Conditions on regional aid

Oct 5

Siluanov answers selected regional proposals. He distinguishes in-year loans from fifteen-year infrastructure loans, urges balanced budgets and warns of deficits and commercial debt, while describing permitted wartime-support uses of long-term loans this year. He is prepared to consider a frontline-institution assignment deferral through 2027 but argues assignments clarify results. He supports medicine-funding distinctions after compiling a beneficiary register. Environmental balances require municipal consent; marketplace redistribution faces divided regional positions, measurement problems and revenue losses. He will examine Crimea contribution installments and, if needed, submit a government proposal. Six-percent mortgage cost estimates differ severalfold and acceptance depends on existing programme funds or added resources. For Murmansk he cites fourteen billion more own revenue, twenty-two-percent overall and sixty-four-percent profit-tax growth, but promises joint balance review and necessary conditional support. He defends the unified Far East–Arctic regime's fifteen-percent contributions and investment thresholds against the 7.6-percent request. Bratsk funds will be sought if businesses fail their commitments. Small-farm funding and individual development cuts will be examined within available resources before second reading. He pledges all transfer allocations by first reading in the next budget cycle, distinguishing this unusual year. Grids rely primarily on tariffs, with possible examination of supplementary needs. He promises joint review of hearing proposals with senators and deputies through the trilateral interbudgetary-transfer commission before second reading, while prioritizing social and wartime obligations and making extra regional aid resource-dependent. These conditional replies do not adopt spending, mortgages or tax schemes.

Kobzev seeks 1.417 billion rubles for Bratsk's 1,275-place school/engineering lyceum, aiming for September 2027 attendance. Matviyenko urges industry participation and later says the seven-year construction must be finished. Siluanov says he will seek funding with Education if businesses fail commitments. These are appeals and conditional support, not completed construction or an approved appropriation.
