The Ministry of Transport will be able to collect up to 10% of the revenue generated by organizations under its jurisdiction

The Cabinet of Ministers of Kyrgyzstan has revised the rules governing the establishment and use of special accounts by the Ministry of Transport and Communications. The new measures strengthen the ministry’s financial control over its subordinate agencies. Now, a portion of the revenue generated by these agencies will be centrally channeled into the ministry’s accounts.

According to a Cabinet resolution dated June 20, the state-owned enterprise “Kyrgyzdortransproekt,” the state agency “Production and Innovation Center,” and the Department of Land and Water Transport—along with their regional divisions—are required to transfer a portion of their revenue to the Ministry of Transport on a monthly basis. The specific amount of these transfers will be determined by the ministry itself, though an upper limit has been set at no more than 10% of the organizations’ total revenue.

At the same time, the Department of Land and Water Transport is authorized to open special and deposit accounts within the treasury system. The ministry itself is granted expanded powers. It will be able to independently prepare and approve revenue and expenditure estimates, taking into account the funds accumulated in special accounts within the Unified Treasury Account, and to allocate these funds to support its operations, including the work of its regional offices.

In essence, the adopted changes create an additional financial resource for the Ministry of Transport through the revenues of its subordinate agencies.
