The State Duma and the Government will work out issues on combating poverty of citizens

“We will resolve this issue together with the government.

And today our specialized committees should literally in the near future work out proposals to develop the president's instructions on these issues, ”RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.

Volodin recalled that the budget for 2022-2024 is being discussed in the lower house of parliament, and all these tasks should be solved within the framework of the budgetary powers of both the entire country and the regions.

“This priority should be reflected in the budget.

And we, for our part, will insist and conduct a dialogue with the government precisely in this paradigm, ”he concluded.

In September, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the need to reduce the level of poverty in the country to a minimum.
