📑 I analyzed this new decree on exemptions in detail
🗓️ 12 October our team first showed the draft: defense industry and energy cut exemptions to 85%, heating and water - to 60%, deferred servicemen are removed from the registry for 50%, and criticality status - decided by a Coordination Center made up of security agencies with no terms or rules. 16 October - decree No.16160 on cancellation, 63 signatures from various factions. That same day the government pulled the document from the meeting. 23 October adopted a revised version.
✊ What we won back. Defense industry and energy - 95% instead of 85%, everyone involved in production is now mandatorily exempted. Heating and water utilities - 75% instead of 60%. The registry for 50% is again with deferred servicemen: a plant with 100 employees keeps 50 exemptions, not 35. The Center received deadlines: up to 1 month, urgent - 7 days. Existing statuses and limits remain in effect until the end of the term. Debt due to nonpayments from the budget is not considered debt.
‼️Now about the problems we see
🤷♂️ Trap 1 - a closed list. Only 13 sectors can be critical. Education, science, services, media - off the list, only by separate appeal through the Center. For donors - no more than 7 people per project.
🤷♂️ Trap 2 - review every 10 days. Ministries and regional state administrations rewrite criteria and check all current statuses: criterion removed - status canceled. The Center's recommendation is a “ground for consideration” of cancellation, including upon request from law enforcement. There is no exhaustive list of grounds.
🤦♂️ Trap 3 - the Center and dependence on military enlistment commissions. 18 seats: SBU, SZR, HUR, Office of the President, National Police, General Staff. For business - 0. Without the Center there is no limit above 50% nor above 95%. A ground for refusal - 2 violation of military registration within 12 months. And a search for an employee by the military commission means a mandatory order and the risk of a violation: the director must check the lists daily.
🎙️ What’s next. The Prime Minister at KMEF 26.10: criticality is separated from economic criteria, abuses exist (we agree, but they must be fixed selectively), and “by 1 December we must deliver a new social contract,” where “let everyone be exempted, but enterprises will provide predictable mobilization.” The fourth revision in 2 months. People in focus groups say: if you don’t know what will happen tomorrow, you can’t even plan for a month. The state must not be a source of stress.
✊ Our action. Decree No.16160 remains in the Parliament. 3 requirements for the new draft: business in the Center with voting rights, an exhaustive list of grounds for cancellation and for appeal, 90 days of a transition period.
💁♂️ A contract one side rewrites every month while the other reads it on Telegram is not a contract. We won back half. For the other half - we’re going….
