Ukrainian Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych at today's government meeting expressed concern about the inadequacy of the increase in housing and utility service prices, as evidenced by a government inspection.\r\n\r\nIn particular, the prime minister noted: "Kherson calculated payments by taking tariffs out of thin air. Without economic justification. Setting figures at random. In Uzhhorod they went so far as to include representation expenses in the tariff amounts."\r\n\r\nA similar situation, according to the premier, also exists in Dnipropetrovsk, Kyiv, Ivano-Frankivsk, and Lviv.\r\n\r\nYanukovych threatened local officials who allowed such increases with punishment. In particular, he instructed the Prosecutor General's Office and law enforcement agencies to take note of the government commission's inspection and asked that they inform him about further developments.\r\n\r\n
