The State Duma recalled the consequences of non-payment of child support

Svetlana Bessarab, a member of the State Duma Committee on Labor, Social Policy and Veterans' Affairs, said that after the introduction of the register of alimony debtors, 15-20% of violators paid money.

In conversation with Lenta.Ru On Thursday, February 26, the parliamentarian noted that previously, malicious alimony defaulters could evade payments by often changing jobs, but now it is much more difficult to do this. According to her, the situation has been improved by the creation of a unified register of debtors, which allows employers to automatically deduct alimony from salaries.

She noted that restrictions on debtors, including a ban on traveling abroad and the possibility of seizing a car, had an additional effect.

At the same time, Bessarab stressed that new restrictions should be introduced carefully so as not to deprive people of the opportunity to earn and pay alimony.

Now it is calculated based on the minimum wage, and the average salary is more than the minimum wage, the website writes. kp.ru .

On February 19, Sergei Mironov, chairman of the Fair Russia Party, took the initiative to create a state alimony fund in the Russian Federation. In his opinion, this structure should take over the financial support of children left without payments from one of their parents, as well as the functions of tracking down defaulters and collecting debts from them, Moscow 24 notes.

On February 10, the press service of the Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation announced that it is now possible to check the availability of enforcement proceedings from bailiffs on the public services portal.
