The Ministry of energy and coal industry acknowledges the debt of 355 million UAH to the state miners.
“Today the salary debt amounts to 355 million UAH, that’s slightly more than the monthly salary fund”, said the ministry head Igor Nasalik.
In August around 400 million UAH was spent on clearing salary debts, he added.
The ministry has developed a decree to make changes to the 2016 state budget in order to provide 1 billion UAH for the state support to the mines. (Ukrainian metal)
