Context

Today, March 11, the Verkhovna Rada adopted a government bill on the implementation of unified approaches to the payment of salaries for civil servants based on job classification.

A number of media outlets and Telegram channels spread information citing MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak, that allegedly after the adoption of the bill, officials' salaries are expected to increase by 70-90% compared to salaries in the private sector. Zheleznyak himself stated that there is no money in the budget for salary increases.

I do not know who invented the message that officials' salaries "should increase by 70-90%" immediately after the adoption of No. 8222…. But I remind you that there is no money for this. It is easy to verify by opening the budget for 2025. Therefore, I advise the media not to reprint nonsense from anonymous Telegram channels
