Khokimiyats owe entrepreneurs 123 billion soums for demolition of buildings

On August 20, during a meeting with entrepreneurs, President Shavkat Mirziyoyev warned the regional khokims.

“Today, local khokimiyats owe 123 billion soums to 349 entrepreneurs in connection with the demolition of buildings and structures. I warn the khokims of all regions: by September 1 of this year, all settlements with entrepreneurs should be completed, not a single amount of debt should remain,” the head of state said.

The President also stated that many entrepreneurs are worried about the further fate of the land plots where their facilities are located.

“The land areas currently occupied by these enterprises by the right of ownership, use or lease will be registered in ownership. That is, no one else will be able to buy this land plot, only its owner will have the right to privatize. At the same time, the site will be privatized by the enterprise on favorable terms depending on its type and location. In the future, entrepreneurs will be able to use land as a highly liquid asset and an object of collateral,” he said.

Mirziyoyev concluded that “these innovations will be the restoration of historical justice that our entrepreneurs have been expecting for many years”.
