In the state Duma proposed in connection with the 75th anniversary of Victory to cancel issued fines for most traffic violations.

In Russia for the first time offer to announce Amnesty on light articles Coapa — to mitigate the negative socio-economic consequences of the proliferation of COVID-19.

Its authors are deputies Igor Lebedev, Yaroslav Nilov and Alexey Didenko has proposed to forgive the Russians fines for most violations of traffic regulations, fare evasion, petty theft, etc. That will support the Russians in a difficult economic situation, they say.

How do I find “news” in the Duma in the coming days will be submitted a draft resolution “On announcement of Amnesty concerning the persons who have committed administrative offences”, dedicated to 75-th anniversary of victory in the great Patriotic war. The authors Deputy speaker of the state Duma Igor Lebedev, deputies Yaroslav Nilov and Alexey Didenko offer to forgive the Russians fines on more than 30 articles of the administrative code. This is necessary to mitigate the negative socio-economic consequences СOVID-19, they say.

including an offer to forgive traffic violations — we are talking about Chapter 12 of the administrative code, with the exception of article 12.8 (“driving while intoxicated”) and 12.26 (“Refusal of medical examination”). In addition, the Russians want to get rid of fines for petty theft (V. 7.22), violation of hunting rules (8.37), failure to meet deadlines for filing a tax return (article 15.5), the appearance in public places while intoxicated (20.21), ticketless travel (11.18), etc.

— the Amnesty declared under something public the important event, this is the celebration of the 75th anniversary of Victory in the great Patriotic war. Therefore, the document will be introduced in the lower house until may 9th. The resolution was prepared by the liberal democratic party of Russia long before the pandemic COVID-19, due which has been greatly expanded the offense, Amnesty, — told “Izvestia” head of the Committee on Federal structure and local government of the state Duma, Deputy Chairman of the faction Alexei Didenko.

the Head of the Duma Committee on labor, social policy and veterans ‘ Affairs Yaroslav Nilov noted that the lower house has never declared an Amnesty for administrative violations, previously it was solely about the norms of the Criminal code.

Deputy speaker of the state Duma from LDPR Igor Lebedev considers that it would be correct to forgive population something small fines, this did not seriously affect the revenues of the Federal budget.

However, as he wrote “Izvestia”, in 2019 only for traffic violations Russians were issued 142 million fine on 106.5 billion rubles, of which more than 80% — with the help of cameras. These revenues go to regional budgets.

The first Deputy Chairman of the faction “Fair Russia” Mikhail Emelyanov said the initiative of the colleagues reasonable and worthy of support.

— Because of the economic and social situation is difficult, people have no money. In addition, the anger in society is now accumulated and the refusal of the minor penalties would once to reverse, he said.

First Deputy Chairman of the faction of the Communist Nikolai Kolomeitsev told “Izvestia” that the Communists are preparing to make a similar initiative.

The “United Russia” declined to comment until the introduction of the draft resolution to the Duma.

According to article 103 of the Constitution, the granting of Amnesty relates to the powers of the state Duma. In the case of support for the decree comes into force from the day of its official publication and shall be executed within six months.

the last time the lower chamber took the decision on Amnesty in may 2015 the 70th anniversary of Victory in the great Patriotic war. Then it was about the articles of the Penal code for intentional crimes of small and average weight. The Amnesty was extended to first offenders. It was about the persons with merits to the country, took part in combat actions defending the Fatherland, as well as performing military or office duty in Afghanistan or other countries, or awarded by the state awards of the USSR or the Russian Federation. Also under the Amnesty were single women and men who have minor children or children with disabilities and some other categories of citizens.

— the message of the deputies of the right. Any act aimed at maintaining social and economic situation of citizens, which is now getting worse, can be assessed as a positive step. When the decision is made, it should be carefully study, as is often between the proposal and the act is a big difference, — has declared “news” the human rights activist.

Chapter APEK Dmitry Orlov said the initiative is quite reasonable.

— the Amnesty in connection with the 75th anniversary of the Victory and the completion of the pandemic coronavirus seems logical to me. It would be quite possible to cancel the fines imposed on citizens for administrative violations and minor criminal offenses during the year, for example, — he told “Izvestia”.

According to experts, the state could also guarantee write-off a small debt of citizens for loans.

the Head of the Political expert group Konstantin Kalachev considers that in this case, the demonstration of humanism and humanity more than appropriate. At the same time citizens should understand that to break the rules is impossible.
