As RIA Novosti reports, at the meeting, Kotyakov reported on the structure of payroll for miners and checks on the implementation of agreements in the industry.

The President noted that he "cannot say" that the Minister of Labor "presented an in-depth analysis."

Also, during a meeting on the coal industry, Putin spoke about the responsibility of those involved in the organization of production.

According to him, "from those who, in pursuit of profit, for some other reason" neglect the safety of people, it is necessary to ask "according to the law, harshly."
