UzLiDeP faction approved the report for the nine months of the year

UzLiDeP faction at the Legislative Chamber of the Oliy Majlis of Uzbekistan held a session to discuss execution of the State budget and the budgets of state trust funds for the nine months of 2017.

It was noted that, during the nine months of the current year, the country's GDP grew by 5.3 percent, industrial production grew by 4.1 percent, agricultural products by 3.5 percent, services by 6.4 percent and construction by 5.3 percent.

As noted in the report, as a result of the work carried out within the framework of the program of state support of small businesses and private entrepreneurship, production volumes of microfirms and small enterprises increased by 105.6 percent. This, in turn, created the basis for increasing the single tax payment paid by them.

Members of the faction noted that the increase in business entities in the country along with the strengthening of the state budget would also serve to further improve the level and quality of life of the population.

It is known that for the modernization and qualitative renovation of the country's economy, there is a need for comprehensive support for attracting foreign investments and advanced technologies, which is one of the most important tasks facing the party.

For this reason, members of the faction paid special attention to the work of social and economic development of the country. For this purpose, during the first nine months of this year, 2,450.0 billion soums were allocated.

Members of the faction discussed work in the field of agriculture. The report notes that in our country today more than 3.6 million workers and employees work in this area. Also, the share of agriculture in GDP is 17.2 percent and the annual growth was 6-7 percent. At the same time, the state is implementing a number of measures to process raw materials and produce export-oriented products.

In particular, work has begun on the implementation of 63 projects in the field of consumer goods. Due to this, an annual processing of 140.7 thousand tons of fruit and vegetable and 10.2 thousand tons of meat and dairy products will be ensured.

The production of finished textiles and sewing-knitted products has attracted investments of $32 million, and 3 new and modern light industry enterprises were involved and more than 1000 new jobs were created.

The deputies also drew attention to the fact that within the framework of projects to grow agricultural products in personal households, 284,500 jobs were created. This shows that in our country active work is carried out to stimulate the activity of entrepreneurs.

Following the session, with regard to views and suggestions made during the discussion, the report on the implementation of the State budget and the budgets of state trust funds for the nine months of 2017 was approved.
