This Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 751 dated June 10, 2026, introduces a two-year experimental project for providing housing to internally displaced persons (IDPs) in rural areas. The document establishes a mechanism for the acquisition of such housing by local self-government bodies and its subsequent provision to IDPs for gratuitous use. The project aims to integrate persons who have lost their homes due to armed aggression into new territorial communities. Funding is provided through budget funds (in particular, subventions) and other sources not prohibited by law.<\/p>\n
### Structure and Main Provisions
\nThe Resolution consists of a main part, which defines the general principles, and three annexes:
\n1. **Procedure for the Implementation of the Project:** defines criteria for IDPs, housing requirements, the procedure for its acquisition, inspection, and the conclusion of use agreements.
\n2. **Model Agreement:** establishes the terms for the gratuitous use of housing.
\n3. **Amendments to the Procedure for Granting Subventions:** introduce technical and financial adjustments to Resolution No. 301 dated March 6, 2026, integrating the mechanism for acquiring rural housing into the existing budget financing system.<\/p>\n
