Amounts in payments increase with the beginning of the heating season. However, the state continues to pay subsidies. As Minister of Social Policy Oksana Zholnovich said during the telethon, the number of recipients of subsidies did not change significantly due to the war.

According to her, this year, about the same amount was allocated to Ukrainians for housing and communal services in November as last year - UAH 3.9 billion.. She explained this by the fact that the state froze tariffs.

“We see statistics of a slight increase. This is the average for last year..

This is due to the fact that, in fact, the state has frozen tariffs - we do not raise prices for electricity, heat, gas. This hinders the growth of payments and therefore we do not have a big surge in applications for subsidies, ”the minister explained..
