Kyiv authorities to draft city budget for 2010

Prime Minister Mykola Azarov has instructed the Finance Ministry, the Economy Ministry, Vice Prime Minister Serhii Tihipko, and the Kyiv city state administration to take measure to draft the budget of Kyiv for 2010.

Ukrainian News learned this from a statement by the press service of the Cabinet of Ministers.

Speaking at a meeting with the leadership of the Kyiv city state administration, the prime minister of Ukraine also instructed the said ministries, the vice premier for economic issues, and the city administration to consider the process of preparations of Kyiv to hold the Euro 2012 European football championship finals and the functions of Kyiv as the capital city of the country.

"Jointly with the leadership of Kyiv, the Finance Ministry and the Economy Ministry and you, Serhii Leonidovych Tihipko, join them and consider the complex of priority-driven questions. Three questions we must consider in the process of work on the city budget for 2010: EURO 2012, the functions of the capital city, and the budget of Kyiv," the press service quoted Prime Minister Azarov as saying.

The prime minister gave the ministries and the city administration three months to settle the questions. He said there are all required capacities for this.

As Ukrainian News earlier reported, Prime Minister Mykola Azarov has given the Kyiv city state administration time until July 2010 to correct the situation in the city.

The prime minister reprimanded the Kyiv city state administration for bad work.
