Prime
Minister Yulia Tymoshenko
states that government guarantees timely payment of wages to the budget
employees and pensions. The premier said during a selector
meeting with heads of regional state administrations.
Yulia Tymoshenko
said that violation of pension and wage payments to the budget employees in
separate towns and regions is groundless as local and central budgets have full
financing.
The Head of Government
reminded that relevant data about non-payment of wages had come from the town
of Brianka of the Luhansk
region and from the Lviv region. According to her, to
prevent such situations in the future, this question will be taken under
control from now on, “I want us to be well-informed: where and how the budget
employees are not paid, if there are such cases, the regional budgets, Finance
Ministry must respond at once to eliminate such cases”.
Yulia Tymoshenko
said that the situation with wages payment of the economic subjects, including
private form of property would be also controlled. “The state can’t leave the
people alone at such hard time,” she stressed.
At the same time the PM
noted that all pensions for January 2009 are paid off. “The Pension Fund
receives incomes so there are no reasons to think that some small instability
in this sector, connected with the global financial crisis, will appear,” Yulia Tymoshenko emphasized.
