Analyzing this year's city budget, First Deputy Mayor Sviatoslav Kravchuk noted that the financial year will be very tense. The 30% increase in the 2005 budget compared to last year's occurred only in actual figures due to the growth of wages for public sector employees. And although the city authorities directed 50% of the lower budget basket to strengthen other expenditures of budget institutions, this is still insufficient. Therefore, Sviatoslav Kravchuk tasked the executive committee apparatus with actively working on filling the revenue part of the budget. He suggested that heads of budget sectors seek additional sources of revenue. The deputy mayor regards the central government's intention to revise the state budget in February-March toward an increase as so far only a promise and considers it unacceptable to wait idly.
