According to an official, from the total amount of the increase, 7,2 billion UAH is allocated to ensure judges’ remuneration.
The draft state budget provides an increase in the overall financial resources for the judicial system by 10,8 billion UAH. The main portion of the funds will be directed to the salaries of judges and staff of the apparatus. This was stated at a meeting of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Legal Policy by the first deputy finance minister Roman Ermolychev, as reported by Glavkom.
According to the official, from the total increase of 7,2 billion UAH, funds are allocated to ensure judges’ remuneration. Another 3,5 billion UAH is for the salaries of court staff who do not receive judges’ remuneration.
Ermolychev emphasized that during the preparation of the draft budget, the Cabinet tried to cover the basic needs of the judicial branch. He said that in formulating the budget, the government aimed to meet the minimal needs of the judicial system.
At the same time, during the discussion, lawmakers focused on another critical problem in the sector—the chronic non-fulfillment of court decisions, in particular regarding social and other compensation payments to Ukrainian citizens by court verdicts. In response, Ermolychev said that the state gradually fulfills such decisions within the available financial resources.
According to Ermolychev, only for court decisions related to the Pension Fund are there currently unfulfilled decisions totaling 80–100 billion UAH. He also cautioned that this sum is indicative.
According to him, the enforcement of court decisions proceeds gradually, in accordance with the law and within the scope of the available resources. He also noted that a separate procedure for enforcing such decisions is carried out by the State Treasury Service, where there is a proper queue and register.
