Chernihiv: the Amount of consumed utility services does not affect the amount of subsidy
for the past years, the country implemented a series of measures to reform the social protection systems of consumers of housing and communal services. Thus, the resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated 6 August 2014 ¹409 "On establishment of state social standards in the sphere of housing and communal services" introduced a new procedure for determining the grant depending on the total household income per person and set social standards for use of housing and communal services. With the beginning of the heating season the population of Ukraine began to actively use the housing subsidies. According to the Ministry of social policy as of January 2016 more than 5 million households receive subsidies and every day their number increases. The government provides strong support to families who are not able to pay the cost of utilities. However, among citizens, spreading false information about the obligatory character of "burning" the total volume of natural gas and use other utilities (cold water, electricity and the like), which provided the subsidy. The saee is concerned that subsidence wasting energy resources instead of saving them. In this regard, prepared outreach materials on topical issues of the new system of housing subsidies, including in terms of energy saving, which are published on the Agency's website (http://saee.gov.ua/uk/news/987). The subsidy is calculated based on the volume of social norms of consumption, which is defined by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine of 06.08.2014 ¹ 409 "On establishment of state social standards in the sphere of housing and communal services" regardless of the actually consumed volumes of natural gas and other utilities. Actual consumption of utilities the household is different from the norm, it can be more or less from social norms of consumption. No need to "burn out" the entire volume of natural gas, or waste use other utilities (cold water, electricity) that provided the subsidy. The amount of subsidy that the bodies of social protection of the population transfer the artists/producers and utility bills for payment of their value, which is not used by the household as a result of saving in the consumption of services can be considered as payment in future calculation periods. Reduced consumption of utility services does not in any way affect the amount of subsidy for the next period, because it is calculated solely on the basis of social norms of consumption. We stress once more that consume utilities cost - beneficial. If you are not using all the gas (or other services), do not need to return, you will still benefit from the subsidy.
