What is known 

The first object is a major renovation of a residential building at 73rd Svyato-Pokrovskaya Street in Gostomel. The head of RMA said that the KRSA Regional Development Department signed a contract with the contractor, who received an advance of more than UAH 6 million, but did not return it on time. According to technical supervision, the contractor completed the work for approximately UAH 2.9 million, but there are no supporting documents on his part. Work on the site has been stopped.

The situation is similar at another facility – the new construction of a nursery-garden "Kashtan" in the village of Byshev, Fastovsky district. The contractor received an advance of UAH 19 million from the DRR. an advance in the amount of UAH 10.8 million is not closed – the certificates of work performed were not provided, the funds were also not returned on time, and 3 months of work on the facility is not being carried out. According to Kravchenko, the department has already applied to the Kiev regional prosecutor's office for this case regarding the need for a lawsuit against the contractor in order to protect the interests of the state.

"All funds that are allocated should go exclusively for their intended purpose, and the work should be performed efficiently and on time. There will be no more indulgences, everyone will be held accountable according to the law!",- said Kravchenko.
