Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova held the next meeting of the Russian Tripartite Commission for the Regulation of Social and Labor Relations.

The meeting considered and supported by the parties the draft federal law "On Amendments to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation", developed on the instructions of the President of Russia Vladimir Putin with the aim of improving the provisions governing the apprenticeship contract. Thus, it was proposed to supplement Chapter 32 of the Labor Code with provisions specifying the status of apprenticeship contracts, the obligations of the parties, as well as the types of programs mastered during the apprenticeship period. In addition, it was proposed to include individual entrepreneurs in the circle of persons who are allowed to conclude apprenticeship contracts. For the apprentice, the bill provides for guarantees of employment, as well as the payment of a scholarship at the expense of the employer for the entire period of training. The employer, in turn, will be able to return the funds spent on training in cases where the apprentice has not fulfilled the obligations specified in the contract. In addition, the bill provides for a mechanism for co-financing the costs of employers at the expense of the budgets of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. It is expected that the expansion of the practice of using apprenticeship contracts will become an effective mechanism for training qualified personnel, which will help solve the problem of staffing, and will also become a social lift for workers, as it will open up prospects for successful employment, career growth and increased wages.

The commission members also discussed and supported the draft federal law "On Amending Article 1 of the Federal Law "On the Minimum Wage", according to which, from January 1, 2026, the minimum wage will increase by 20.7% and will amount to 27,093 rubles. The adoption of the bill will lead to an increase in wages for about 4.6 million workers.

In addition, the members of the RTC were presented with reports on the activities of two regional tripartite commissions for the regulation of social and labor relations – the Leningrad Region and the Republic of Dagestan.

Other issues were also considered at the meeting. Among them:

draft federal laws "On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation (in terms of optimizing the mechanism for the implementation by certain categories of citizens of the rights to receive social protection measures (support), state social assistance provided at the expense of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, as well as improving the activities of the Pension and Social Insurance Fund of the Russian Federation)" and "On Amendments to Article 138⁶ of the Budget Code of the Russian Federation";

draft federal law “On the expected period of payment of funded pensions for 2026”;

draft federal law “On Amendments to Article 69 of the Federal Law “On the Fundamentals of Health Protection of Citizens in the Russian Federation” and the Federal Law “On Education in the Russian Federation”;

draft resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation "On Amendments to the Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation of March 30, 2022 No. 511";

draft resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation "On the transfer of days off in 2026".

The program of infrastructure budget and special treasury loans helps to create comfortable living conditions for people and stimulates the development of Russian regions. Thus, thanks to infrastructure projects at the expense of IBC and SKK, almost 31.4 million square meters of housing were put into operation in Russia and about 3.4 trillion rubles of private investment were attracted to the economy, Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin reported.

“The main goal of the large-scale interdepartmental national project “Infrastructure for Life” is the comprehensive development of populated areas and the creation of high-quality and modern infrastructure for people to live, work and relax. Infrastructure budget and special treasury loans have become effective tools in solving the problems of improving the quality of life of Russians. Thanks to them, new schools, kindergartens, clinics and roads are opened in the regions, utility infrastructure and public transport are updated. This, in turn, contributes to the development of territories and their economic growth. Thus, only thanks to the IBC projects, since 2022, it has been possible to commission about 28.8 million square meters of housing, create 155.3 thousand jobs and attract 3.15 trillion rubles of extra-budgetary funds to the economy. In addition, the SCC program stimulated the commissioning of another 2.6 million square meters of housing and attracted 230.6 billion rubles of private investment. Considering the effectiveness and demand for these mechanisms, on behalf of The President, within the framework of the national project “Infrastructure for Life”, the program continues in the form of treasury infrastructure loans,” said Marat Khusnullin.

According to the Deputy Prime Minister, the largest volume of housing thanks to infrastructure projects financed by budget loans was put into operation in the Republic of Tatarstan – 4.4 million sq. m, St. Petersburg– 3.3 million sq. m, Moscow region – 2.6 million sq. m, Sverdlovsk region – 2.5 million sq. m and Moscow – 1.3 million sq. m.

The IBC and SKK program is supervised by the Russian Ministry of Construction, and the operator is the public-law company Territorial Development Fund. Such loans are issued to regions at 3% per annum for a period of up to 15 years.

"Infrastructure budget and special treasury loans are an accessible financial mechanism through which socially significant projects are implemented. This work, among other things, has allowed for tax and non-tax budget revenues in the amount of 250.7 billion rubles. The Territorial Development Fund, as an operator, provides support to regions – it helps in preparing applications for financial assistance, in launching the necessary processes, and monitors the projects themselves. We will also take part in monitoring the implementation of projects through treasury infrastructure loans," said Vasily Kupyzin, CEO of the Territorial Development Fund.

Currently, applications from regions for financing projects within the framework of treasury infrastructure loans are being accepted. The regions mainly plan to use these funds for the modernization of housing and communal services, as well as the implementation of social, road transport, and tourism infrastructure projects.

The summer health campaign continues in the regions of Russia. In the Year of Children's Leisure, the education system has prepared various leisure formats for schoolchildren: sports and creative events, environmental campaigns, hiking trips, as well as scientific, educational and patriotic projects.

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko and Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov summed up the results of the work of children's health camps in June.

"President Vladimir Putin instructed to pay special attention to the quality and safety of children's recreation. It is important to provide comfortable and educational recreation to everyone, and, of course, to the children of our heroes – participants of the special military operation. In June 2025, about 40 thousand children's recreation and health organizations have already accepted about 3 million children, including almost 126 thousand children of SVO participants. In the Year of the Defender of the Fatherland and the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory, children's camps hold patriotic shifts, where children learn about the history of the country and participate in thematic events. The key task is to continue the modernization of the recreation and health infrastructure, including the International Children's Center "Artek", which is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year," the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.

In June, more than 800 thousand children who found themselves in difficult life situations and about 28 thousand schoolchildren from the reunited regions rested in children's camps. At the same time, about 73 thousand students from different regions of Russia rested on the coast of the Black and Azov Seas alone.

"In the Year of Children's Recreation in the Education System, dedicated to the anniversaries of the federal children's centers "Artek", "Orlyonok" and "Smena", the summer health campaign will cover about 6 million schoolchildren across the country. To ensure a high level of quality in organizing recreation and health improvement for children, a unified system for training camp counselors has been introduced and a federal program of educational work for all children's camps has been approved. This allows us to build a holistic approach to raising children in camps, which complements the educational work carried out with children in schools," said Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov.

Summer shifts are also actively held in other children's health camps. In Crimea, for example, there are 370 children's camps. Particular attention is paid to organizing recreation for children from the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, Zaporizhia, Kherson, Kursk and Belgorod regions. It is planned to accept 1.8 thousand children from these regions at the expense of the reserve fund of the Republic of Crimea.

In addition, in July, shifts with the participation of children from different countries were held in children's centers subordinate to the Ministry of Education. Thus, the eighth international shift "Artek Gathers Friends" is taking place in the International Children's Center "Artek", which united more than 3 thousand children from all regions of Russia and from 66 foreign countries. The shift program includes key topics: the 80th anniversary of Victory, the Year of the Defender of the Fatherland and the 100th anniversary of "Artek".

For the first time in 30 years, the All-Russian Children's Center "Orlyonok" is hosting a group of 25 Cuban schoolchildren and their mentors. The opening ceremony of the international program "Children of the World" was held at the All-Russian Children's Center "Ocean". It is attended by children from Russia and 5 friendly countries: the People's Republic of China, Tajikistan, Mongolia, Laos and Belarus. As part of this program, participants will study the culture of different peoples, the basics of public diplomacy, exchange experiences and work on joint creative projects.

Let us recall that earlier the Ministry of Education approved plan of events for the Year of Children's Leisure

Kamchatka Krai will present its exposition at the exhibition "Far East Street", which will be held from September 3 to 9 as part of the tenth, anniversary Eastern Economic Forum. The exhibition is organized by the Roscongress Foundation with the support of the Office of the Plenipotentiary Representative of the President in the Far Eastern Federal District.

The central zone of the space – “The Will of Man” – will be dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the victory over Japan, and in particular to the legendary Kuril landing operation. It will act as an interactive museum of Kamchatka military glory, and will harmoniously weave in stories about the Great Patriotic War and the special military operation.

"We are celebrating the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory. I believe that it is impossible not to touch upon the topic of the victory of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War. Kamchatka made a significant contribution to the victory. This is not only the supply of products, but also the mobilization of human resources, the heroic defense of borders and preparation for strategically important operations. It is important to always remember and honor the heroic and selfless feat of home front workers, soldiers and officers, indigenous peoples – all who gave their lives for the freedom and independence of the Motherland. It is necessary to show what heroic feats and efforts were needed to create the victory," said Deputy Prime Minister – Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy to the Far Eastern Federal District, Chairman of the Organizing Committee of the Eastern Economic Forum Yuri Trutnev.

"80 years ago, ordinary residents of the Kamchatka Region played a decisive role in ending World War II by conquering, as it seemed then, the impregnable islands of the Kuril Ridge. Then 306 Kamchatka residents gave their lives in the fight against Japanese militarism. We will never forget the price of this victory. And the main task that we set for ourselves is not to allow the events of those years to be distorted: every young resident of our region and the country as a whole should know and honor the pages of history that turned the tide of the war. That is why, on the instructions of the President of the Russian Federation, an open-air museum will be opened on Shumshu Island, and young people from all over the country, including Kamchatka guys, will go on a search expedition to the places of glory of our soldiers. The play "Ballad of the Kuril Landing" will be staged in Kamchatka, which will be presented to viewers on August 18," said Vladimir Solodov, Governor of the Kamchatka Region.

The exhibition will introduce guests and participants of the EEF-2025 to the unique features of Kamchatka, including its natural beauty.

"Kamchatka is a unique region, the pearl of our country. It is truly a land of fire and ice. Active volcanoes, geysers, thermal springs form a unique landscape. This is one of the most promising territories of our country for tourism development. New hotels open every year. Thanks to the implementation of the master plan, the urban environment of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky is gradually changing. A new modern airport welcomes guests of the peninsula," concluded Yuri Trutnev.

The pavilion will feature a "Traveler's Passport" zone, designed in the style of a travel agency. At the entrance to the pavilion, visitors will receive a personal traveler's passport with information about tours, discounts from Kamchatka operators, and gifts from restaurants and shops.

A separate zone, "The Power of the Ocean", will be dedicated to demonstrating the natural and economic potential of Kamchatka as a unique oceanic territory. The big screen will systematize and present such areas as marine logistics, the fishing industry, scientific ocean research, tourism, sea cruises and yachting, and Pacific cuisine.

In the "Volcano Energy" space, visitors will be able to get acquainted with the region's potential for implementing projects in the fields of tourism, construction, agriculture, education and science. In the "New Kamchatka Facilities in 360" zone, it will be possible to take a full 3D tour of the Kamchatka Regional Hospital, airport and greenhouse complex.

The "Specially Protected Natural Areas" area will feature the heroes of the documentary "Fire Fox". Visitors to the stand will also be able to familiarize themselves with information about the "Far East – Land of Adventure" competition and learn about new tourist routes in the region. In addition, the area will display images from street cameras, supplemented with elements of wild nature.

A souvenir pavilion and a stage will be opened next to the main exposition of the Kamchatka Territory. In addition, the Falcon House will be open, where the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment of Russia will prepare its own exposition.

The 10th Eastern Economic Forum will be held on September 3–6 at the campus of the Far Eastern Federal University in Vladivostok. During these days, the exhibition will be available to forum participants, and on September 7, 8, and 9, it will be open to everyone. The EEF is organized by the Roscongress Foundation.

Resolution of July 24, 2025 No. 1091

Document

Resolution of July 24, 2025 No. 1091

The government is suspending the floating rates of export duties on sunflower oil and sunflower meal. This will increase the volume of shipments to foreign markets and support sunflower producers and processors. This decision was made at the suggestion of the Oil and Fat Union. It is especially relevant in anticipation of autumn field work.

Floating rates of export customs duties on sunflower oil and meal were established by the Government from 2021 and 2022, respectively, in order to protect the domestic market from unjustified price increases. Thus, it was possible to stimulate the economic interest of producers in maintaining product supplies to the domestic market.

Currently, the domestic market is fully supplied with sunflower oil. Therefore, the suspension will not affect the availability of sunflower oil for Russians.

In June 2025, the export duty rate on sunflower oil was 7119.8 rubles per ton. In July – 4739.3 rubles per ton.

In June 2025, the export duty rate on sunflower meal was 1,244.1 rubles per ton. In July 2025 – 1,054.4 rubles per ton.

After the adoption of the Government Resolution, the rates were reset to zero. This measure will be in effect until August 31, 2025 inclusive.

The signed document introduces changes toGovernment Resolution of April 6, 2021 No. 546.
