President of the
Russian Federation Vladimir Putin on May 24 proposed the indexation of salaries
taking into account inflation for those categories of state employees that were
not noted in the May 2012 decrees.
He said this, opening the meeting with members of the government.
Putin instructed the government to work out options and submit proposals on
this matter.
"I ask you not to delay, we must discuss this in the near future, I mean
that we are actively working on the preparation of the budget for 2018,"
he stressed.
The head of state drew attention to the fact that the topic of raising wages in
the budgetary sphere concerns millions of Russians. He recalled that according
to the May decrees, in 2018 it is necessary to reach the set parameters for
increasing salaries for "specified" categories of state employees.
"May decrees" - 11 documents with assignments to the government,
which were signed by Vladimir Putin in May 2012. They outlined the necessary
measures designed to improve the quality of life of Russians.
