The Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on the Organization of State Authorities, Local Self -Government, Regional Development and Urban Planning, the party’s servant head Olena Shuliak explained when they can refuse to be compensated for destroyed or damaged by Russian armed aggression, even if it was confirmed by the relevant commission.
It is a case when a citizen voluntarily cooperated with the occupiers or is a citizen of the Russian Federation, Shuliak said. Such persons have no chance of paying, even if their housing is destroyed completely, they will not be able to apply.
“From the point of view of receiving compensation for housing is not a delicate issue. There is a clear answer here: such people will receive nothing from the state Ukraine. Neither within the program there is a renewal or within other compensatory mechanisms, ”Shuliak said.
The corresponding restrictions are explicitly stipulated in the law that regulates compensation payments, so persons who cooperated with occupation administrations or otherwise acted against the interests of Ukraine cannot even file applications.
In Ukraine, such cases have already been recorded, Shuliak added.
Thus, in Kharkiv region tried to get compensation of persons who went to the temporarily occupied territory, but claimed compensation for damaged housing in the controlled territory.
“Commission at local self -government bodies, especially in rural areas, clearly know where anyone is. And even when such statements came, the commissions were blocked because they knew that a person is in the territory of a hostile state. Such statements just went to the trash, ”the People’s Deputy said.
There were also other cases. For example, when the housing owner is a Russian citizen, even if such property is common and the share belongs to a citizen of Ukraine.
“No matter who used the dwelling, or who has a share there – if the co -owner is a Russian citizen, no compensation is provided. This is a fundamental position, ”she stressed.
Shuliak noted that the right to compensation is exclusively citizens of Ukraine who:
- are official owners of damaged or destroyed housing;
- do not have convictions for collaboration, state detention or other crimes against the state;
- did not cooperate with the invaders;
- whose housing is entered in the State Register of Property Rights.
“Even the compensation mechanism provides for a criminal record – a relevant certificate is submitted. We are criticized that the process is delayed, but this is the only way to protect the system from abuse, ”the People’s Deputy explained.
Ukraine has the right to defend itself not only on the battlefield, but also in the legal plane, so it should be clearly understood that assistance is provided to those who have remained with Ukraine, not to those who work against it.
In addition, the People’s Deputy explained that citizens may refuse for other reasons. In particular, due to the provision of false information on the degree of damage to housing, lack of real estate in the State Register of Property Rights and in cases where public places are referred to, for example, common spaces in high -rise buildings.
Another widespread option is when the applicant himself refuses to compensate for the next stages of the program. For example, if the destroyed housing is located in temporarily occupied territories (Tot).
“The government has not yet expanded the housing for the housing. To do this, it was necessary to make the appropriate decision in the form of a specific resolution. The request for the launch of this stage of the program is enormous, but despite our numerous recommendations, the government is delayed. However, I hope that it could soon happen, as the Council of Europe Development Bank has recently signed an agreement on allocation of 80 million euros to launch a mechanism for compensation to people from temporarily occupied territories, ”Shuliak explained.
At the same time, some optimism provides that remotely inspecting housing can now be in the frontal areas. However, it does not spread to that, Shuliak noted.
Earlier it was reported that the EADS Program should be distributed to destroyed housing located in temporarily occupied territories.
Earlier we wrote that the ministry community development and the territories of Ukraine received the first 4.3 billion UAH for payment of certificates for housing for IDPs. During the week of the program, 50 families have already implemented certificates and purchased new homes.
The World Bank will give Ukraine $ 84 Millions within the HOPE project. The CTIs will be aimed at paying compensation under the Equilibrium program.
