PM Groysman: Budgets of local communities grow several-fold due to decentralization

The budgets of local communities grow from three-fold to seven-fold as a result of decentralization in Ukraine.

Prime Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Groysman said this at the Cabinet’s meeting, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

"New territorial communities continue to unite. Their budgets grow three-fold, four-fold, five-fold, and even seven-fold. Today, we transfer more resources to local communities, so it is important to say that we are on the path that will be successful for territorial communities, namely, for people," Groysman said.

He assured all the local government bodies that the policy for strengthening the positions of local government and decentralization of power will be further carried out by the Government.
