Explanatory note "To the draft federal law" On some issues of applying articles 43 and 49 of the Law of the Russian Federation of February 12, 1993 N 4468-1 "On the pension provision of persons held by military service, service in the internal affairs bodies, state fire service, organs FOR CONTROL OF THE TRAFFIC OF NARCOTIC DRUGS AND PSYCHOTROPIC SUBSTANCES, INSTITUTIONS AND BODIES OF THE CRIMINAL EXECUTIVE SYSTEM AND THEIR FAMILIES"

EXPLANATORY NOTE
TO THE DRAFT FEDERAL LAW "ON SOME
ISSUES OF APPLICATION OF ARTICLES 43 AND 49 OF THE RUSSIAN LAW
OF THE FEDERATION DATED FEBRUARY 12, 1993 N 4468-1 "ON PENSION
PROVISION OF PERSONS WHO PASSED MILITARY SERVICE, SERVICE
IN THE BODIES OF THE INTERNAL AFFAIRS, STATE FIRE
SERVICES, AUTHORITIES FOR CONTROL OF THE TRAFFIC OF NARCOTICS
DRUGS AND PSYCHOTROPIC SUBSTANCES, INSTITUTIONS AND BODIES
OF THE CRIMINAL EXECUTIVE SYSTEM AND THEIR FAMILIES"
The bill provides official, having the force of a federal law, clarifications on the application of articles 43 and 49 of the Law of the Russian Federation of February 12, 1993 N 4468-1 "On pensions for persons who have served in the military, served in the internal affairs bodies, the State Fire Service, bodies control over the circulation of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances, institutions and bodies of the penitentiary system, and their families" in terms of including the monthly cost of the corresponding food ration issued to military personnel in the allowance for calculating and reviewing pensions.
The need to adopt the draft law is due to the revealed lack of a uniform understanding by law enforcers of the procedure for applying Articles 43 and 49 of the said Law of the Russian Federation.
Article 43 of the aforementioned Law of the Russian Federation provides for the inclusion of the monthly cost of the food ration issued to military personnel in the monetary allowance for calculating pensions for military pensioners. At the same time, paragraph 1 of Article 14 of the Federal Law "On the Status of Servicemen" in the version that was in force until January 1, 2005, provided for the right of servicemen to receive, in exchange for the food ration issued to servicemen, monetary compensation in the amount of the monthly cost of food rations. The procedure for determining the monthly cost of a food ration is established by paragraph 11 of the Decree of the Council of Ministers - the Government of the Russian Federation dated September 22, 1993 N 941.
On January 1, 2000, the Federal Law "On the Federal Budget for 2000" came into force, in accordance with which the norm of paragraph 1 of Article 14 of the Federal Law "On the Status of Servicemen" was suspended in terms of establishing the compliance of the amount of monetary compensation in exchange for food rations with the size of the monthly cost of food rations . The aforementioned Federal Law also established that in order to calculate the amount of monetary compensation in exchange for a food ration, the cost of a food ration is assumed to be 20 rubles per day. This legal norm was repeated in the federal laws on federal budgets for 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005.
From January 1, 2000, the pension authorities of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation began to mistakenly follow the indicated norms of the named Federal laws on federal budgets for calculating pensions (the error was established by the Ruling of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation of December 14, 2004 N 429-O). At the same time, the amount of the monthly cost of a food ration issued to servicemen was taken by them to be equivalent to the amount of monetary compensation in exchange for a food ration issued to servicemen, and equal to 600 rubles.
Since the monetary compensation in exchange for the food ration was less than the actual monthly cost of the food ration, this led to a significant underestimation of the calculated amount of the pension. As a result, military pensioners suffered significant financial losses.
Unfortunately, arbitrage practice showed the lack of a uniform correct understanding of the procedure for applying Articles 43 and 49 of the said Law of the Russian Federation and the courts of the Russian Federation. On the same issue, they make different decisions both in favor of citizens and in favor of federal executive bodies.
At the same time, in the event of refusals on the claims of citizens for the incorrect application of the norms of articles 43 and 49 of the said Law of the Russian Federation, as a justification for such a decision, the courts groundlessly point to the absence of data on the daily norm of food rations determined by the competent authorities, the absence of data on prices for food products that exist in day of appointment and recalculation of his pension, to the fact that the monthly cost of food rations is not legally determined. The presence of a statutory amount of monetary compensation instead of a food ration is mistakenly accepted by them as the initial basis for including it in the monetary allowance for calculating pensions for military personnel.
The grounds for the adoption of the proposed bill are:
1. Decree of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation of November 17, 1997 N 17-P, in which paragraph 2 (paragraph four) indicates the possibility and procedure for adopting a regulatory legal act, through which an official clarification of the federal law is carried out.
2. Resolution of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation of April 23, 2004 N 9-P, in which (paragraph three of paragraph 4.1) formulated as a requirement for the legislator the legal position on the need for accuracy and specificity of the legal norms that underlie the decisions of law enforcement officers, including courts, so that the participants in the relevant legal relations could reasonably foresee the consequences of their behavior and be confident in the invariance of their officially recognized status, acquired rights, the effectiveness of their state protection, i.e. that the right acquired by them on the basis of the current legislation will be respected by the authorities and will be implemented.
3. Determination of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation of December 14, 2004 N 429-O, in which, based on the analysis of legislative and other regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation, the following conclusions were made (paragraph 4):
Apparently, a misprint was made in the official text of the document: the Law of the Russian Federation of February 12, 1993 "On pensions for persons who have served in the military, served in the internal affairs bodies, the State Fire Service, bodies for controlling the circulation of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances, institutions and bodies penitentiary system, and their families" has N 4468-1, and not N 941. a) Law of the Russian Federation of February 12, 1993 N 941 provides that:
for the calculation of pensions for military pensioners, the monthly cost of the corresponding food ration is included in the monetary allowance;
pensions, as well as allowances for pensions, increases and increases in pensions are subject to revision with an increase in the monetary allowance of military personnel based on the level of increase in the monetary allowance of the relevant categories of military personnel taken into account when calculating pensions simultaneously with its increase;
b) the rules for calculating and reviewing pensions for persons who have completed military service have not been changed by the federal legislator, including through the suspension of the rules establishing these rules of the said Law of the Russian Federation;
c) the concept of "monetary allowance for calculating a pension for military personnel" differs from the concept of "monetary allowance for military personnel" and has an independent regulatory meaning for the purposes of calculating a pension and revising it for military pensioners: an increase in any of the components of monetary allowance for calculating a pension, including the cost of food rations as a specific form of food security for military personnel, involves a revision of the pension.
The adoption of the draft law will make it possible to achieve the correct and uniform application of the norms of Articles 43 and 49 of the Law of the Russian Federation of February 12, 1993 N 4468-1 "On pension provision for persons who have served in the military, served in the internal affairs bodies, the State Fire Service, bodies for monitoring circulation of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances, institutions and bodies of the penitentiary system, and their families", to restore the rule of law and prevent further violation of the rights of citizens discharged from military service established by law, to relieve social tension in society caused by the incorrect application of the norms of the Law.
The adoption of the draft law is of great moral and social significance for society and the state.
