Bashkiria government summed up results of its work

On September 29, a meeting of the government of the republic was held in Ufa following a year since its formation. Prime Minister Andrey Nazarov noted that the past year had been difficult, including due to the coronavirus pandemic.

At the meeting, the results of the work were summed up, in particular, the growth of the industry, the leadership position of the agricultural sector, the production index, small and medium-sized businesses in the republic, as well as a slight increase in the average salary among residents of the region.

Andrey Nazarov recalled that the republic provided entrepreneurs with support in the amount of 30 billion rubles.

"Today, our investment portfolio includes over a thousand projects totaling 1.2 trillion rubles. Of these, 205 projects with a total investment of 673 billion are among the priority ones. This year we took 9th place in the National Investment Climate Rating in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, having risen by seven positions at once. This is a significant breakthrough," the Prime Minister said.

According to him, the institution of business sheriffs and the system of special economic zones contributed to this achievement.

The issue of salaries among the residents of Bashkiria was discussed separately. According to Andrey Nazarov, the average indicator for the republic is 37 thousand rubles and it has grown by 4.2 percent over the year.

As Andrey Nazarov believes, the higher the productivity, the greater the profit of enterprises, the higher their salaries.

He added that in order to increase labor productivity by 2024, the government intended to involve 200 enterprises in the implementation of the "Labor productivity and employment support" national project. By the end of this year, it is planned to overcome the bar of 100 industries involved in the national project.

Summing up the results in the field of housing and utility services, the Prime Minister of the republic said that work was underway to improve public areas, to implement the "Bashkir courtyards" project, and to conduct a major overhaul of apartment buildings and entrances. He said that at the moment, a project was launched to create a new system for handling solid municipal waste.

The government paid particular attention to the development of health care. It was reported that efforts were focused on the following areas: oncology and cardiology, in connection with which regional programs had been approved: "Cardiovascular diseases control" and "Cancer control". A program for the development of children's health care was also created.

The situation with the coronavirus was also considered at the meeting. As the Prime Minister noted, in connection with the epidemic, an infectious disease center had been erected in the republic in the shortest possible terms.
