No food benefits to be given to IDP babies born after 31 December 2016
This is according to the latest amendments made to the “instructions on allocation of monthly food benefits from the state budget to IDPs” by the State Committee for Refugees and IDPs.
The amendments have entered into force today.

According to another amendment, people who have been appointed judges to judicial authorities as well as those who engage in entrepreneurship and are state-registered as commercial entities will not be given benefits, either. Furthermore, IDPs who have or have not returned to their previous place within three years since the conditions were created for them to return will not be given benefits.

Other amendment is related to the internally displaced persons served in law-enforcement agencies. The internally displaced persons, who serve in law-enforcement agencies and were paid monetary compensation in lieu of food allowance in the manner prescribed by law, haven’t been granted monthly allowance for meal expenses so far.

Under the amendment, only the officers who serve in law-enforcement agencies will not be granted monthly allowance.

Thus, the internally displaced persons who are not officers, and who serve in law-enforcement agencies and paid monetary compensation in lieu of food allowance in the manner prescribed by law will be granted monthly allowance for meal expenses from now on.
