President of the Crimean State Council Vladimir Konstantinov said that the republican authorities plan to extend the previously introduced moratorium on the establishment of a resort tax in the region. It has been reported TASS.
“In the current circumstances, we will extend this moratorium when we do not have air transportation and the Crimean Bridge is under repair. We’ll come back to this topic when everything stabilizes. We will consider all possibilities,” said Konstantinov.
He also noted that the authorities “are not unequivocally against the facility tax”, but that its implementation in the Crimea now is premature.
The facility tax previously applied in the Crimea, Krasnodar, Stavropol and Altai Regions, offer extends to other Russian regions. The relevant draft law was sent to the regions by the State Duma Committee on Tourism and Infrastructure Development.
As committee chairman Sangadzhi Tarbaev explained, the main work on the draft law will begin in the fall, but “the situation is difficult and the issue remains controversial.”
November 1 Russian President Vladimir Putin instructed The government will submit to the State Duma a bill on the right of regions to impose resort fees.
