State budget 2014 may be passed at off-site sitting

Chairman of the Party of Regions faction Oleksandr Yefremov expects that the state budget for 2014 will be adopted at the Parliament’s session hall.

"We will do everything to ensure adoption of the budget. 203 out of 205 members of the Party of Regions faction will be present in the session hall tomorrow and will be ready to adopt the budget... We intend to pursue the adoption of the budget in the hall, but if any of our colleagues will create intolerable working conditions, then we'll make certain decisions. As of today, we did not consider the possibility to work outside the session hall," he told a briefing, ForUm correspondent reports.

According to Yefremov, the opposition has no reason to prevent adoption of the state budget. "They must understand that by preventing adoption of the state budget, they prevent normalization of the financial situation in all the cities, towns, regions and center of Ukraine," MP concluded.
