Good day! I am happy to help you understand this Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.
1. **Essence of the Law:** This Resolution amends two previous Government Resolutions concerning support for war veterans and persons who defended Ukraine. The changes concern the procedure for granting subventions to local budgets to support specialists in accompanying veterans, as well as the procedure for paying monetary compensation for housing rent for certain categories of defenders.
2. **Structure and Main Provisions:**
* The Resolution consists of two main parts: amendments to Resolution No. 779 of July 5, 2024, and amendments to Resolution No. 252 of March 7, 2025.
* The amendments to Resolution No. 779 concern the provision of information on payments of monetary compensation to Defenders for housing rent.
* The amendments to Resolution No. 252 clarify the criteria for receiving compensation for housing rent by internally displaced persons, and also add a requirement to provide a certificate of registration as an IDP. Also, there is a minor correction in paragraph 14 regarding the replacement of the word “appointment” with “payment”.
3. **Key provisions for use:**
* **For local authorities:** It is important to consider the need to generate information on compensation payments for housing rent, starting from the date of the person’s application for such payment and until the end of the year.
* **For internally displaced persons (IDPs):** To receive compensation for housing rent, it is necessary to provide a certificate of registration as an IDP (or its electronic equivalent) and confirm that the housing is not located in the temporarily occupied territory (unless it was damaged or destroyed).
* **For all recipients of compensation:** Attention should be paid to the change of the term “appointment” to “payment” in paragraph 14, which may affect the interpretation of this provision.
I hope this helps you better understand the essence of this Resolution!
