On October 18, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine adopted a resolution "On Amendments to the Procedure for the Exercise of Powers by the State Treasury Service under Special Conditions during Martial Law." The document was developed by the Ministry of Finance in accordance with the decisions of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief to strengthen the protection of critical energy facilities and ensure their financing.
The purpose of these changes is to ensure uninterrupted financing of the country's most important facilities, even in the difficult conditions of war. This will provide additional mechanisms to respond quickly to the consequences of enemy attacks and to allocate funds faster for the restoration, protection, and modernization of damaged facilities.
With amendments to the resolution, the Government has expanded the list of expenditures for which the Treasury authorities make payments on a priority basis. This list now includes expenses for the construction, reconstruction, major repairs, and engineering as well as technical measures to protect energy facilities. These may include power plants, substations, power lines, or other key elements of the fuel and energy infrastructure.
In addition, priority payments include financing measures to protect facilities in the railway transport and postal subsector (in particular, traction substations with a voltage of 150/110 kV), as well as critical infrastructure life support systems — heat supply, water supply, and sanitation.
In effect, this means that energy, transport, and municipal infrastructure facilities have been given additional priority status for treasury payments. The Treasury authorities will promptly open appropriations and finance such expenditures on a priority basis.
