Earlier, the Cabinet of Ministers introduced restrictions for state and administrative buildings — after 6 p.m., they are not allowed to use outdoor lighting. The Ministry of Education also stated that schools are switching to energy-saving mode and within one hour after the last lesson, the lights in the building must be turned off, i.e. after 6 p.m.
«This is wrong. Even if you turn off the lights in all buildings, don't do it in schools until at least 7 p.m. Children need to be able to leave the school calmly, and parents need to have time to meet or pick them up», — he said.
