- restoration and overhaul of buildings to provide housing for IDPs and persons who lost it as a result of the armed aggression of the russian federation, as well as the purchase of housing for such persons.
Funds will also be allocated for the development of:
- project documentation for objects that were destroyed as a result of the armed aggression of the russian federation,
- purchase of computer and multimedia equipment (which was destroyed, damaged, or stolen) for educational institutions located in the territories affected by the armed aggression of the russian federation.
The authors of the draft law plan to attract 20 billion from the nationalization of russian assets to fund the fund in 2022.
