They will affect pensions, payments to families with children, CTP and loans.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a law on a set of measures for socio-economic support of Russians and Russian business.
The text of the document is posted on the official legal information portal. It follows from it that support will be provided in various spheres of the Russian economy.
Pensions and social sphere
The Head of State gave the Government of the Russian Federation the right to determine the size of the social security pension, which will be higher than the level established by Russian legislation.
It also gets the right to additional indexation of social pensions and fixed payments to insurance, and to determine how the minimum wage will be set and the living wage calculated, RIA Novosti reports.
According to the document, the government will be able to take over the details of the legal regulation of social assistance, social protection, the nuances of providing social services, guarantees and payments that are assigned to certain categories of citizens.
Credit holidays
The law entitles Russians and domestic small and medium-sized businesses to new credit holidays, including mortgages. Those borrowers who have concluded loan agreements before March 1, 2022, will be able to apply for the introduction of holidays to their lender in the period from March 1 to September 30.
Those individuals and entrepreneurs whose incomes have decreased by 30% or more, and the amount of the loan taken does not exceed the level set by the Government of the Russian Federation, will be able to count on a respite. These borrowers can expect to defer loan repayments for up to 6 months, or reduce the amount of payments.
CTP tariffs
The new law establishes the right of the Bank of Russia to review CTP tariffs for car owners and owners of hazardous facilities more often than once in 12 months. The right is designated as temporary.
The Central Bank will be able to promptly adjust the limits of the tariff corridor, or the coefficients themselves, without being tied to the time when they were last changed.
Payment of insurance premiums and a moratorium on inspections
Also, the Government of the Russian Federation has received the right to extend the terms of payment of insurance premiums, as well as the right to declare and apply additional grounds to grant a deferral or installments for the payment of insurance premiums for the most affected industries.
The document also provides for the introduction of a moratorium on scheduled inspections of small and medium-sized businesses this year. In the field of IT, a moratorium is being introduced until the end of 2024.
Public procurement
The law allows the Government of the Russian Federation, regional and municipal authorities to change the essential terms of the contract, including its subject, price, term and payment procedure, if the goods are purchased for the needs of the state and the municipality.
This year, the government is allowed to establish additional opportunities to purchase goods and services from a single supplier, as well as to establish additional cases in order to cancel penalties for non-fulfillment of contracts.

Medical organizations get the right to purchase more necessary goods through an electronic request for quotations, and to purchase medicines, materials and products in a simplified manner. For example, the FSS will be able to buy technical rehabilitation equipment and services from one supplier.
The maximum amount of purchase of medicines from one supplier for prescribing to one patient has increased from 1 million to 1.5 million. Medical products that do not have a domestic analogue can be bought from one supplier abroad, but it must be from a country that has not joined the anti-Russian sanctions.
