To reform the system, the law “On the Basic Principles of Housing Policy” has already been adopted, which provides for the creation of a Unified Information and Analytical Housing System. Deputy Minister of Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine Natalya Kozlovskaya spoke about this in an interview with the publication “Khmarochos”.
Statistics.
According to Kozlovskaya, the availability of vacant housing in the community is not the main factor for the relocation of internally displaced persons. First of all, people focus on employment opportunities and economic prospects in a new locality.
The second most important factor is proximity to relatives or habitual region of residence.. This is why most IDPs try to stay close to their homes - in the Kharkov, Dnepropetrovsk, Zaporozhye and Poltava regions.
Availability of housing ranks only third among the criteria for choosing a new place of residence. According to statistics, 40% of internally displaced persons rent housing, 12% live with relatives, and only a few percent - about 70 thousand. people - use places of temporary residence.
In terms of the use of housing certificates for destroyed property, the leader is the Kharkov region, where 7,519 certificates were sold. Next come the Kyiv and Dnepropetrovsk regions, as well as the city of Kyiv. The certificate is valid for five years.

Main problems.
The first problem remains the absence or irrelevance of documents for housing. Automatic verification of ownership through the Register of Damaged Property is impossible if the housing is not privatized or information about it is not included in the State Register of Real Estate Rights. Therefore, the Ministry of Development urges citizens to update the relevant data through TsNAPs.
The second problem is the slow work of the commissions that check damaged objects. Due to the large number of applications, they do not have time to process them quickly and require additional reinforcement.
The third problem concerns objects destroyed in areas of active hostilities. In such cases, commissions are often unable to physically inspect the property.
To solve this problem, bill No. 11444 has been registered in the Verkhovna Rada, which will allow local governments to recognize certain territories as completely destroyed based on the nature and scale of destruction.
