At a meeting of the joint commission on budget, finance, tax policy and municipal services, deputy Nikolai Sataev raised the question of the possibility of allocating additional funds to deputies' funds ahead of the New Year holidays. This was reported by a correspondent of NIA "Nizhny Novgorod".
"The New Year is approaching. If there is a chance to allocate to each deputy funds for gifts and events for children, the decision needs to be made now, not postponed until December. If that possibility does not exist, this needs to be understood in advance so we can look for other ways," Sataev said.
Chairman of the budget committee Mark Feldman said the initiative had previously been voiced by the chairman of the city duma, Yevgeny Chintsov. He plans to discuss the issue with the head of the city, Yuri Shalabaev, to find out whether funding sources can be found this year.
Feldman clarified that funds from deputies' funds cannot be used to purchase gifts. To this, Sataev replied, "Fine, let it not be for gifts, but at least for holding New Year's events for children."
Yevgeny Chintsov assured that he would inform deputies of the results of negotiations with the mayor.
