Government allocates UAH 9 bln for winter preparation – Groysman

Ukraine has allocated about UAH 9 billion for the preparation for the 2017/2018 heating season.

Prime Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Groysman said this in an interview with Ukrayinske Radio (Ukrainian Radio).

"Last year UAH 7.2 billion was allocated for the preparation for the winter period, and this year - UAH 9 billion, so there is enough money ..." Groysman said.

The head of government recalled that he recently held a conference call on the preparation for the heating season and he was convinced that this process was passing at the high level.

Groysman plans to hold the next meeting on September 15.

The prime minister has no doubt that this year the authorities will prepare for the heating season much better than last year.
