OREANDA-NEWS. June 11, 2010. By the end of 2010 should be paid arrears of wages at enterprises of state and municipal property. Prime Minister of Ukraine Mykola Azarov said this opening the meeting of the Government.

Mykola Azarov has reminded that he held a meeting on the arrears of wages, during which, together with ministers, heads of regional administrations, they analyzed causes of debts and put the task to repay debts by the end of 2010.

"State and municipal companies should not have debts at all. Those who can not or will not perform the task, will free up space for others, more effective leaders", the Head of the Government stressed.
