Lukashenko: Money collected under Decree No. 3 must be spent on children’s needs only

MINSK, 9 March (BelTA) – The money collected under Decree No. 3 on preventing social dependency must be spent on children’s needs only, Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko said during the government conference held on 9 March to discuss topical aspects of the country’s development, BelTA has learned.

“All the money collected should remain in local budgets, to be exact in district budgets, not the regional ones. This money should be spent on children’s needs only,” the president said.

“Most importantly, every local government head should report to the district and town councils on how the money, every kopeck is spent. It may be used to support a kindergarten, a children’s home, or to help purchase things for kids and so on…. Children’s needs only. God forbid that even one kopeck is used for other purposes such as repairs of roads or apartments...,” the head of state noted.
