Law on State Support for Energy Supply Costs.

This Law primarily addresses the provision of state support for households with low and medium income levels in relation to energy resource costs. Its stated objective is to mitigate the impact of rising energy prices on these households, ensuring they have access to essential energy services such as electricity, natural gas, and thermal energy. The legal framework is established under a specific law that outlines eligibility criteria for support, which includes income thresholds and the requirement for households to have contracts for energy supply. The document also specifies that support will not be granted to individuals subject to international or national sanctions. It outlines several key measures aimed at providing financial relief to eligible households. These include a reduction in costs for consumed decentralized fuel and the establishment of conditions under which support is granted. The Cabinet of Ministers is tasked with determining the specifics of the support, including the amount and the monitoring of its distribution. Additionally, it mandates the creation of an information system to assess household eligibility based on income and housing expenses, ensuring that the support reaches the intended beneficiaries. The implementation plan involves the Construction State Control Bureau, which is responsible for maintaining the information system that evaluates household eligibility. The document specifies that personal data will be retained for 24 months before deletion, and households have the right to refuse further processing of their data. It also outlines the process for households to contest decisions regarding their eligibility, emphasizing the importance of transparency and accountability in the administration of the support measures. Stakeholder involvement is implied through the roles assigned to various governmental bodies in the oversight and execution of the support programs.
