In Ukraine postponed increase in pensions for people over 75 years old, which was scheduled for July 1, 2021. New recalculation will be carried out in October.
“On October 1. We postponed. Then we did not have a little bit of resources. But the main thing was to make the indexation of pensions from March,” she said Minister of Social Policy Marina Lazebnaya… It is reported by “Radio Liberty“.
According to her, the postponement of the recalculation of pensions is due to the lack of funds in the state budget.
“That is, the resource was calculated in such a way that we postponed the program“ 75 plus ”to October 1. Everyone will receive 400 hryvnias and will receive it every month,” Lazebnaya stressed.
The Minister of Social Policy added that next year the increase in old-age pensions will not depreciate. Payments will also be subject to indexation.
Let us remind you that in Ukraine will begin to carry out annual indexing pensions. This year, the increase will be up to 11%. Some pensioners will not receive anything, while others can count on an increase in the amount of more than UAH 1,000.
Also Cabinet of Ministers plans pay off UAH 11 billion of pension debt immigrants from Donbass. The corresponding draft government decree on the procedure for payment was prepared by Pension Fund of Ukraine.
