The delay in payment of pensions in July for only a few days makes the pensioners worry: how will it be in August? Experts say that the delay in payment may occur in August, Segodnya reports. Oleksandr Okhrimenko, the President of the Ukrainian Analytic Center, believes that there may be delays.
The plan for the receipt of funds to the state budget is still not being implemented. Nobody knows whether the Pension Fund will receive a transfer payment in time. If the receipt of the transfer payment is delayed, the pensioners will also be paid with a delay. But, according to Okhrimenko, the leadership of the PF will be preoccupied with paying off the August pensions in time.
Taras Kozak, the economic expert, said that in case of permanent nonfulfillment of the plan for receipts to the state budget, the Pension Fund will have not enough money. However, according to the specialist, the government will take measures to pay the August pensions to 25th of August. The Pension Fund does not comment the situation, but so far pensions are paid as planned.
