Introduction of the term “foreign agent” was justified, and the provision of benefits for NGOs increased social benefits is fraught with the appearance of those who under the guise of social activities will begin to produce everything – from “diamonds to the nails.” Such statements made by Vladimir Putin on Tuesday at a meeting with members of the Public Chamber. The event was timed to coincide with the tenth anniversary of OP.
President’s meeting with members of the federal and regional public chambers took place on Tuesday in the Kremlin. The occasion was a decade of creating chambers. On this occasion, the President said to the community members a few kind words. In particular, it stated that “the authority of the Chamber is growing,” OP as a body “held”, “listen to her opinion.”
The Secretary of the Public Chamber Alexander Brechalov reminded that public men a year are involved in the examination of bills at the stage of the so-called zero readings. During this time, we conducted a review of twenty-four laws. However, the State Duma has taken into account the opinion of OP only ten cases complained secretary OP.
The head of the Presidium of the Council of regional public chambers Natalia Vavilov made a proposal to develop a draft law on general principles of regional chambers. One third of the House, she said, should be formed of public figures on representation of regional executive authorities, the second – on the proposal of legislative assemblies of subjects, and then delegated to the Chamber of Citizens, together form the last third.
«Let’s project together look to work on it”, – Putin responded favorably. It does not fail to add:
«Initially, we planned the creation of the Public Chamber, to broaden the base of democracy – do not say this loud words».
Replica obviously intended for those who have forgotten, what was the idea of creating a global OP. Or simply did not know about it.
During the event, the President also spoke on the theme of the regional spending authorities to self-praise. “Of course, the power of all levels – municipal, and regional and national – are obliged to cover their activities, and for this it is necessary to allocate some funds. Without the financial support to do nothing at all impossible – competently he argued the head of state. – However, these funds should be limited and information – dry, it must ascertain certain facts, nothing more. ” By the federal TV channels, this mini-lecture on journalism is clearly not the case.
It was raised at the meeting and the topic of creating a single register of non-profit organizations, as well as providing tax breaks to some of them. This social activists say more at the January forum of NGOs, organized by the OP. Registry idea if President approved, but the proposal to tax benefits reacted with skepticism.
But members of the House, as demonstrated by the present meeting, decided to make a new attempt.
A member of OP-Elena Topoleva Soldunova reported that the results of performance of the assignments that Putin after the forum of NGOs, has reached an agreement with the Ministry of Justice. Unified Register of non-profit organizations will be established under its auspices: “We see this (the creation of the registry. -” Times “), not as a burden but as a kind of aggregator – a single place, which would presents the NGOs as a whole, which was not still. So that everyone can go (to the registry. – “Times”) to go and see who is doing what – what NGOs working with the elderly, which – with children who is active and who is not. ”
Separately, as previously, it is proposed to register the term “socially oriented NGOs”, and within this group, reported poplar-Soldunova, the Chamber would like to “select another category: companies increased social benefits ».
The analogues of such organizations, according to the speaker, there are many countries around the world. Why do we need such a category in Russia? “To some special tax status to give. We are very well thought out it is – the status can be permissive and not notifying. NGOs can receive benefits to pay taxes on property, land and transport, “- said the poplar-Soldunova.
Obviously, realizing that provide benefits to persuade Putin NGOs will not be so easy, social activist led the final argument: it is estimated the tax service, “it will not lead to serious costs.” For example, last year the NGO paid for the aforementioned types of taxes only 43 million rubles.
To determine which NGOs deserves the status of an “organization increased social good” and what is not, to be a special commission, which, summed up the poplar-Soldunova should include representatives of government departments, the Public Chamber and the HRC.
Putin, after hearing the speech, launched into a discussion of the use of public institutions. “Public Chamber and the” Popular Front “- is so wide, large tools the public interest, designed to prevent any monopoly. This tool is extremely important. In this sense, we value and NGOs. But whether it is necessary to provide them with benefits? “- He asked the President a question and he answered it well.
«Some support exactly need. But here we are in danger – as soon as the benefits provided under the guise of employment in public work there are those who are doing everything – from nails to diamonds. Track is difficult, “- in front of the present head of state,” burying “the idea of benefits.
True, he was born a response sentence might make sense to allocate funds NGOs that are used to pay taxes, as government subsidies. But judging by the relative uncertainty in his voice, that question for himself, Putin finally decided.
But the president had no hesitation in another question: was it reasonable to introduce legislation, the term “foreign agent”. “A lot of controversy has been around the so-called foreign agents – he made a sharp transition from the question of benefits for NGOs. – I agree that some things require further adjustment, a number of formulations are harmful to some loyal pro-Russian organizations. But recent experience shows that it is not by chance that we have introduced the concept (“foreign agents.” – “Times”). ”
As a proof of his words, Putin cited the example of the sensational story with the Society for Consumer Protection, last week published on the site memo to citizens, according to which the tourist, has not received permission from the Ukrainian authorities to visit the Crimea, can bear criminal responsibility. This peninsula itself as well as Sevastopol, in a memo called “occupied territories.” Site Consumer Rights Protection Society on Monday at the request of the Prosecutor General has blocked Roskomnadzor.
«The organization that cares about consumers began to give advice to tourists on how to behave in the Crimea. This concern for the citizens of Russia? No, it serves the interests of foreign countries. That is why, and introduces the concept of “foreign agent” – with great satisfaction the president said.
However, he immediately recognized that “and this sphere of activity” needs more regulation. However, the details did not go. Yes, in general, parts and were not required. The main thing was said, the term “foreign agent”, “liquidation” is not subject to.
