Most experts claim the quality of food and children's products
Local producers of substandard or dangerous to the health food authority area will be punished ruble, but from the purchase of imported imported products of dubious quality trading networks refuse to ask. These harsh measures, according to Minister of Economy Vladimir Barteneva area, will have a positive impact on the quality of goods sold on the Don.
Risk group
Despite the large number of regulatory organizations, the quality of goods sold at retail are not yet in line with the expectations of customers. The audits show that in markets and shops are easily found either expired food or unsafe to operate pharmacies.
- At markets and shops in the area of our specialists otsmotreno more than 2,5 thousands of samples of food products, perfumes and cosmetics, clothing and footwear for children. Carried out selective purchases. Conclusions disappointing: in the food production in the «risk» have been frozen products, wheat flour and cereals fasovannye - Director FSI «Rostov center of standardization, metrology and certification» Alexander Krasavin. - Among the industrial products - footwear for young children. It does not meet the safety requirements for child health. It is necessary to warn parents and officials of the preschool education institutions from using inadequate safety of children's bosonozhek, sapozhek, shoes.
Conclusions colleagues supported the chief regional center of Hygiene and Epidemiology Gennady Aydin:
- Randomized purchased 130 samples from 13 groups of foods: boiled sausage and butter, cottage cheese and sour cream, ice cream and mineral water, and so on. Tested not only on standards but on the criteria of safety, health standards and regulations - Aydin said. - One in four product did not conform to the guests, and three samples were simply dangerous to the health of consumers. A third product did not meet the requirements for labeling: distort information about the product - the time of manufacture.
In order not to fall into the risk, buyers should be cantankerous.
responsible life. As the leader of violations butter - rejected 50 per cent of proven products. Second place - mineralka and ice cream: 30 percent of samples violations. The third - sour cream, milk, condensed milk and fish preservy. They found violations in 20 percent of samples.
Dangerous toys
In Rostov Center of standardization, metrology and certification of such substandard samples organized a whole «exhibition of achievements». Here and sour cream with komkami of unknown origin, and strange-colored condensed milk and children's toys that can cause a child has an allergic reaction. By the way, children's products and toys, along with food, are at risk: many of the toys can tear a child or lead poisoning from the use of poor-quality ink. One retired Chinese handicrafts published by the sound level exceeds the allowed threshold of 5 decibels and can affect both hearing the child, and on his psyche.
What to do in this situation, the consumer? Sue the seller or manufacturer of each particular case? Practice shows that the time for that at all lacking, and the chance to court a company producing a staff of lawyers more than the ordinary buyer with bad cup sour cream. As of sales interest conscientious producers and authorities in the region, have joined efforts in the regional program «Protecting the rights of consumers in 2008-2010».
- We have tried in this program to unite all forces that deal with issues of consumer protection - told the regional economy minister Vladimir Bar-tenev. - It is important that this program - not just a list of activities. She, unlike similar projects in other regions, backed by finance serious: Region has allocated 30 million rubles for three years. The essence of the work - not checks, but that to bring people information on the quality and substandard goods and forcing commercial networks select contractors, who supply quality products.
There will be whether the program is another declarative document indicating the problem rather than deciding it? There will, I'm sure Vladimir Bart-nev. Already a year of the program share of local producers in the «black list» consumers have minimized. On the control of the inspection organizations - producers of Belgorod and Voronezh, Moscow and Karachay-Cherkessia. Leverage to unscrupulous manufacturers and vendors in the area is.
- Proceedings of the above checks sent to law enforcement authorities to stop the sale of questionable goods. Has undertaken a thorough awareness from the trading networks, up to bring to administrative responsibility. It should be borne in mind that most of the commercial networks is interested in conducting assessments and improving the quality of goods. You already have the practice of mutual education major trading networks on the emergence of market shipments of substandard goods - told Vladimir Bartenev. - Provincial Department of Agriculture and Food has been research on producing and processing enterprises areas on which there is criticism. Under natsproekta «APK Development» Various forms of support to local producers, including business processing. Minselhoz - chief manager of the funds and has leverage to unscrupulous processors. We have already identified the problem group of commodities - flour, milk and sausage - and will keep them in control in the future.

It is not a secret that the quality level of knowledge of school leavers each year is declining. Low salaries for teachers (7-10 thousand rubles a month, while in rural areas, still below) - just one reason. What else prevents schools of teaching children «to excellent», to be seen.
- In front of us a great job of combining computer databases of various ministries and departments to create a specialized site, where it will ImageDupeless all information about a particular area of the republic and on each school,
- Alexander Adamsky said.
- Based on the information received, we have identified a «narrow» place in an educational setting. Then it will be necessary to determine how to correct the situation. Will this increased staffing in school, increase Internet traffic, or something else - decide in each case.

Fracture in the budget
Kultuku and Slyudyanke not enough money for reconstruction after earthquake
Despite promises, the authorities Slyudyanskogo areas do not have been able to September 15, to finish the restoration of the August earthquake sites.
According to the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the delay associated with promptly by local authorities and the paucity of reserve funds. Do the leaders of municipalities in this respect their views.
Repair of housing in Slyudyanke and Kultuke in full swing. Every day at work are 39 teams that are rebuilding ovens in private homes, patch holes in the walls mnogoetazhek. But when the finished work is unknown. Although initially promised to tackle the consequences of the earthquake by 15 September.
- Who has promised since, and asked - angrily responded correspondent Alex Schulz, head of Slyudyansko th MO. - The date it took from the ceiling. And to report quickly that everything is fine. And in fact the situation is, nobody is interested. Would come and look how much we destruction and what the money needed for reconstruction.
According to him, still in Slyudyanku not received a penny of material assistance. Therefore, the municipality may as well hold their own work.
- So far succeeded in restoring about 60 percent destroyed - the mayor believes. - When do the rest? I do not know. It is necessary to manage large cold.
Do not finished repairing homes and in the village Kultuk. The reason is the same-heavy workload and lack of funds. After all, the restoration of one furnace costs seven to eight thousand rubles.
However, lack of money, according to rescuers, in this case can hardly be attributed to objective reasons.
- The reserve fund Kultuka was only 17 rubles, "argues Michael Begun, deputy chief of the General Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations Irkutsk region.
- The number laughable. Mayor's salary is several times higher.
The reserve fund Slyudyanka - 100 rubles. The amount more impressive, but, as demonstrated by August earthquake, it is absolutely insufficient to remedy the serious CHP.
- All the more so that the territory is situated in seismic zone - stressed zamnachalnika management. - And by law, every locality should be a financial reserve fund.
In MoES preparing the regional administration statement to the prosecutor's office, which intends to draw the attention of supervisory authority for inadequate amount of reserve funds to municipalities and weak activity of some authorities in the MoD to disaster relief.
Ably
Gennady Istomin, deputy chairman of the Legislative Assembly of Irkutsk region:
- The session of parliament on Wednesday were adopted amendments to the law on the budget field, which will be allocated 10 million rubles for the relocation of dilapidated and emergency housing, taking into account the impact of the earthquake in Slyudyanskom area. The question of how to allocate additional funds will be considered in the future.

Hospital List
Approved a list of social facilities, construction of which will finance the regional budget
PROGRAM
YESTERDAY Legislative Assembly of Irkutsk region has adopted a program «Development of social and engineering infrastructure
Municipalities ».
The document provides for the allocation of regional budget funds for repairs, renovation and construction of schools, hospitals, kindergartens and cultural institutions, work on which has already launched a project prepared estimates.
Previously, the municipal building was financed through non-targeting of the regional investment program. However, the new version of the Budget Code requires that funds allocated for long-term target program. The administration has developed such a document, which affects 20 sites in 12 cities. As explained director of the department of urban activities and traffic management area Nizamova Rita, most buildings in rural areas were included in the regional program «Social development village».
- Revenues of municipalities do not allow them to solve social problems without government support, particularly from the regional budget - she said.
Within three years - until 2010 - the program is scheduled to spend 1.3 billion rubles, including 1 billion - from the regional coffers, 355.5 million - from local. As a result, the authorities promised in 2010 to put into operation the school (in total - in 3586, thousands of students), kindergartens (120 seats), Hospital (355 beds), clinics (1330 visits per shift), cultural (capacity - 1428, thousands people).
In discussing the program for the session, the deputy Alexander Vedernikov proposed to eliminate those sites, work on which is scheduled to begin in 2009. He noted that the need either to seek inclusion in the federal program, or arrange a private-public partnership to be used not only to regional funds. The cost of the program in this case would be reduced to 440 million rubles. But deputies did not support the amendment, noting in particular the lack of facilities, funding is proposed to be reduced.
According to the version of the program in 2009 is planned to allocate funds, for example, the construction of the central district hospital of 250 beds to the Polyclinic at 500 visits per shift in Tayshete. Of the region's budget over two years to primarily be spent over 230 million rubles. Chapter Taysheta Alexander Zaika noted that the territory of the matter is very important - acting TSRB is in terrible condition.
- Our hospital is located in the barracks, which have remained since the Stalinist camp - he said. - All are wooden, very old. To build a new hospital designed more than twenty years ago, scored piles, so everything and left. In the local budget money for it does not, so we expect only the assistance from the regional budget.
The largest number of sites - six - in software, including from the city Cheremhovo.
- We have long since nothing is built and repaired, it is true that finally something and Cheremhovo receive support - the mayor stressed the territory Vadim Semenov. - My job before this, all the documentation produced, and some made their own funds.
According to him, the willingness of the two sites funded under the program scheduled for this year is 90 percent. The allocation of regional funds to complete the construction of a clinic at 600 hits and music school. The building, which is now in clinic, said the mayor, «is just chock». Construction of the new began in 1991, but then froze because of a lack of resources. In 2009, is scheduled to begin the overhaul children's city hospital with a polyclinic.
- It serves three areas - Svirsk, Cheremhovo and the area, if not pass the licensing of the poor conditions, all the municipalities remain without medical assistance, "commented Vadim Semenov. - Companies in which we could count in the allocation of money in our city there.
This year the program from the budget of the region planned to spend about 94 million rubles. The largest share - more than 80 million rubles - are Cheremhovo. The cost of selective overhaul the building of pre-school educational institution in Nizhneudinske amount to 4.8 million. At overhaul school in Winter is 2.5 million renovation of buildings for child health clinics in Usolye-Siberian - 2 million, strengthening the building of structures District Cultural «Gornyak» in Zheleznogorsk-Ilimsk - 1.33 million.
Of the local budgets for the facilities program this year should be sent to 144.3 million rubles, the bulk of the funds - more than 100 million
- Angarsk allocated for the construction of schools and a maternity home units.
Chinese chemistry
Even experts can not determine what the residents of Celestial polivayut their tomatoes
Regional Rosselhoznadzora beat anxiety. According to the audit, the Chinese tenants who work in the region, using drugs, not identifiable laboratory equipment.
This means that for the safety of cucumbers and tomatoes, almost driven to the regional market for the products of competitors, no one can vouch.
- Who knows them, these Chinese as they rassadu polivayut, pozhimaet-shoulders Tatiana Buree Islands, the seller market «Season». - No cucumbers have kept pace in May, and tomatoes - in early July. The smell, of course, special, a taste that is not entirely based on these vegetables are black, but the buyers are. First, because nothing else is not, then - because the cheap.
It turned out to catch the hand of Chinese tenants almost impossible.
- In the Irkutsk region alone there are over thousands of greenhouses, this summer we managed to check only a third of them - told the head of the department of land control Rosselhoznadzora in the Irkutsk region Dmitry Troyazykov.
During these audits have revealed that Chinese manufacturers are using fertilizers, which are not included in the Russian roster of pesticides.
- This year alone, we tested 34 businesses in the area where the Chinese, at 12 and found 500 kilograms of such fertilizers - explained Galina Zaschepina, Acting Head of the Department overseeing the safe handling of pesticides and agrochemicals. - And last year there were many - 300 kilograms. The most terrible thing that we do not know of what we use these chemicals. They and in the laboratory may not always recognize, and the vegetables themselves, they do not manifest themselves - at the time of ripening completely disintegrate. In China, more than a thousand factories producing chemicals, a huge selection. And carries them to us just as hand luggage.
Most of the fertilizers used as regulators of growth, through which the products grown by Chinese tenants coming into the counters Irkutsk markets much sooner than produced by Russian farmers.
There are a tenant of the PRC to the staff Rosselhoznadzora and another claim - the quality of seeds.
The seeds of the Chinese often carries a pocket, they are also not included in the relevant Russian roster and dangerous that can be genetically modified. In addition, all the seeds adapted for the use of Chinese as chemicals and pesticides.
There is another side of the problem. The applicable Chinese tenants «Chemistry» accumulates in the soil and then into the groundwater. In Rosselhoz-oversight fear that if you do not stop the vicious practice after five years in Chomutov, for example, could start the problems caused by water quality. So far, tenants who violate the rules just fine.
- During the existence of our department, we arranged 57 cases of administrative violations issued fines amounting to more than 100 thousand rubles - explained Dmitry Troyazykov. - To gather material for the case to the Prosecutor's Office needed time to study - you need to watch how accumulate nitrates and nitrites in boreholes and wells. Such work has Reference Center, established on the basis of FSI «Irkutsk interregional veterinary laboratory».
Those who care about their own health, specialists Chinese producers of vegetables do not doubt - their cheap products in Priangare will enjoy stable demand.
call not to buy suspiciously cheap vegetables.
Opinion
Alexander Menge, the first deputy head of administration of the Irkutsk region:
-We have eight farms in the area lawfully employed 182 Chinese workers, they are cultivating 240 hectares. But there are nelegaly who are not registered in the region, but also worked out, clandestinely. Together with the migration service, we have carried out checks, but all difficult to identify, when you are the authorities, they disappear overnight - as if evaporate. Have we fertilizers, which are not included in the roster - about one ton. As their provezli across the border, for me, the mystery may be, as hand luggage, but now budgeted territory must find a means to destroy these dangerous chemicals.
The rules of addition
Another 80 young families will be able to obtain housing
In the Irkutsk Region approved changes to the program «young families - affordable housing».
As the head of Agency for Youth Policy region, Igor Ivanov, supplemented by a list of purposes for which budgetary support. Social Benefits can now be obtained for the purchase of housing or construction of individual residential houses at the expense of regional and local budgets.
It is expected that the number of families that will improve living conditions this year will increase by an average of 80 - depending on housing costs. Previously, it was assumed that by the end of the year the total number of 300 families. Last year, young couples have been issued 162 certificates of housing, one family refused to participate in the program.
Help
The right to participate in the program «young families - affordable housing» have spouses, age not exceeding 35 years, as well as single-parent families (where parents are not more than 35 years) who are in need of better housing conditions.
Mongolian question
Will there representation of the Irkutsk Region
Amendments to the law of the Irkutsk region «About the Register of civil service» adopted in final form.
The document contains the name change positions - in the light of the new scheme of the executive branch, approved temporarily as acting governor in early September. According to her, the supreme executive authority of the Government rather than the administration region. We introduce the post of first deputy chairman of the Government, Deputy Chairman, Minister and Deputy Minister of the field.
The procedure for the adoption of the bill marked a sudden intrigue - «Mongolian issue», as he called it Zaksobraniya chairman Viktor Kruglov. Deputies discovered that the bill requires the elimination of the Irkutsk region in Mongolia, and almost unanimously booming zaprotestovali. The speaker noted that the Irkutsk region long-standing and strong ties with the republic, which continues to grow, that 70 percent of trade turnover between Russia and Mongolia are in a region that the exchange of students and established organization of child recreation. The deputy Gaidar Gaidar said that when it comes to savings, it is best to reduce the region's representation in Moscow.
However, Viktor Kruglov told that the case not only in Mongolian representation - perhaps, the bill contains other pitfalls that have elected not discussed. But he stressed that the establishment of the Government of the Irkutsk Region parliamentarians supporting, and they were ready to meet the administration and to consider the document at short notice, but vskryvshiesya circumstances do not permit to do so.
As a result, deputies adopted a document only in the first reading.
But after the break Viktor Kruglov told colleagues that he had talked with a temporary acting governor of Igor Esipovskim and he asked to take the law into the final version to allow the executive to act now. Also, the Administration promised before the end of the meeting to submit the scheme to MPs of government in the form of a table. Igor Esipovsky expressed willingness to consider the issue of representation in Mongolia, as well as others who have raised the deputy regional parliament.
P.S.
Administration believed thirty parliamentarians, which is sufficient for the adoption of the law in the final.
Business on ideas
In Primorye, will discuss how to put science in the service economy
First Pacific Regional Innovation Forum will be held in Vladivostok in late November.
Its organizers are the Federal Agency for Science and Innovation, the administration of Primorsky Krai, Center for Science, Technology and Innovation and technological cooperation between Russia and APEC, as well as Far Eastern State Technical University, in partnership with the regional network of business angels «Laboratory of investment», the National Guild of innovative managers and intellectual Agency PRioritet.
In the coming years to the Far East to face the global challenges of economic recovery. Some financial injections, without innovative technology, they are not resolved. But innovation - a risk, especially for the investor, which will be far from each businessman. Those who agreed to risk and invest in new, unknown cause, without a guaranteed successful outcome, are united in venture capital funds or are individuals, acquiring the status of «business angels». Obviously, it is time to discuss prospects for development and steps venture industry in the East Russia, the possibilities for international cooperation with countries in the Asia Pacific region in this area, as well as joint programs and actions to support small and medium enterprise innovation.
To do this, the capital of Primorye will come representatives of the National Commonwealth of business angels Russia, the National Association of innovation and development of information technology, Russian technology transfer networks, concerned ministries and departments and all those who in one way or another involved in the innovation business. At the forum invited to direct funds and venture capital investments, private investors, consulting and law firms, banks and industrial-but-financial groups, scientific and educational institutions, companies offering and seeking money for business development and actively participated in the development of East Russia.
- Among the goals and objectives of the forum
- To develop further phases of development strategy for the Pacific innovative terminal Russia, organization of talks on attracting investment in small and medium-sized innovative companies Far East - told the correspondent executive director of the Center for Science, Technology and Innovation and technological cooperation between Russia and APEC Igor Korshenko.
The forum will debate and «round table», in which organizers intend to identify trends and prospects of development «Business angelic» movement in the region. Will attempt to focus the intellectual and capital resources on innovation projects and the commercialization of intellectual activity.
By the work I Pacific International Innovation Forum held on the occasion and the Pacific Venture II site. This will enable exhibitors investment projects to talk with many experts at the international level. About the person to talk is premature, but that in Vladivostok to meet the elite of Russian and international innovation and venture businesses - for sure.
Incidentally, the exposition Pacific Venture platform - the first step in selecting a portfolio of investment sites of major Russian and foreign investors from the Asia-Pacific countries.
Equally important, and other sites forum. «Youth civic initiative»: here is scheduled to hold educational activities aimed at developing leadership skills among the young - the future of managers - in the development processes of innovation economy in Russia. «Financial Instruments»: Representatives financial services market will coordinate their work, discuss ways of developing financial instruments in the region, ways to improve the situation of venture investing.
The choice of Vladivostok as the venue for the first forum nesluchaen. Primorsky Krai - one of the leaders of DFO on investment potential. According to the results of 2007, he entered the top three Far Eastern territories to a minimum integral investment risk and the level of investment potential region took place among the 22 regions of Russia.
Investment attractiveness of Primorye determine the unique economic and geographical position on the domestic and international transport corridor, the availability of effective population and natural resources for the development of export production. This high level of education, financial and communications infrastructure, skilled workforce is concentrated. The authorities took the edge of an active role in protecting the rights of investors.
The result - in recent years, investment in Primorsky Krai sharply increased. For the year 2007 for economic development and social workers from all sources of funds sent to 43.16 billion rubles - 126 per cent by 2006-mu. The influx of investment in fixed assets in comparison with 2004 increased by 2.3 times.
The bulk of investment goes to tertiary sector of the economy of Primorye. In 2007, it had to 48 per cent of total investments. The largest flow - in transport and communications, manufacturing and distribution of electricity, gas, water, finance, operations with real estate, manufacturing production.
There is a growing interest in the territory and from foreigners. Over the past year in the region received 31.3 million dollars - at 36.7 per cent higher than a year earlier. The proportion of direct investment amounted to 37 percent, while the proportion of other - 63. Large amounts of foreign finance aimed at development of agriculture, forestry, hunting, in operations with real estate, rental and services, trade and manufacturing.
Primorje - one of the most «knowledge» actors DFO. The basis for the development of this field is the Law «On innovation in the territory of Primorsky Krai», adopted in February 2008. A special program «The introduction of scientific innovation, FEB RAS in the economy of Primorsky Krai» 2008-2013. Its main event - a pilot project cluster «Naval biotehnopark».
But perhaps the main criterion for selection of Vladivostok venue for the forum was that the Primorsky region - one of the four regions of the country (even Moscow, St. Petersburg and the Volga region) and only one in DFO organized on its territory, a venture sites.
Opinion
Alexander Kostenko, the first vice-governor of Primorsky Krai:
- The development of innovation system will ensure the growth of knowledge-production, increase productivity and make business in Primorye more attractive for investments. Currently, the economy edges used 1347 advanced production technologies, of which 943 - in design and engineering, 223 - in the fields of management and communications, 129 - in the production, processing and assembly.
In addition, a strategic project for the establishment of the territory of the Pacific edge of innovation terminal Russia, which granted the APEC Working Group on Industrial Science and Technology and supported by eight countries. Initiator of the project - Center for Science, Technology and Innovation and technological cooperation between Russia and APEC.
All of this is seen by us as part of the strategy for the development of innovation Primorsky Krai until 2050 and could become the basis for the content of Russian initiatives already in 2012 - during the presidency of Russia in the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation.

At Kolyme ozabotilis problem free bring gold
Magadan has been an international forum gold miners «Gold North obramleniya Patsifika». It is timed to the 55 th anniversary of the Magadan region and the 80 th anniversary of the first kolymskoy geological expedition under the leadership of Yuri Bilibin, which initiated the development of gold deposits here.
In discussing the pressing issues the industry was attended by over 200 representatives of mining companies, geologists and scientists from 15 regions of Russia. In addition, the forum came a delegation from the USA, Canada, Australia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Mongolia. The focus was on problems of geological study, exploration, industrial development of gold deposits in the northern sector of the Pacific, the specifics of extraction of precious metals at the Arctic coast. The guests visited the leading mountain of Magadan region - mining «Dukat», a name Matrosov, Kolymsky affinazhny plant.
Specialists and representatives of power structures should consider the legalization of admission of persons to gold. In their view, this will be of great importance, since the domain of private-diggers are piles, waste and other non-development. This will allow even slightly, but still increase production, but the main thing - to introduce private activities in the legislative track. Meanwhile, «Yellow hunters for the devil» considered to be «black miners» and serve as the main reason for the growth of crime in the industry.
Speaking at the forum, the governor of Magadan region Nikolai Dudov the need to lift the ban on gold individual entrepreneurs.
- Currently, they are unable to extract precious metals because it is prohibited by existing legislation. However, according to the law enforcement agencies in the abandoned settlements individual production is very active. In so doing, formed illicit trafficking in gold, rising crime - said the Governor.
According to Nikolai Dudova need for legislation to allow access to gold citizens of the Russian Federation. To do this, individuals need to provide lots of mineral resources, not of interest to commercial operation or are already involved in otrabotku. The right to determine the organization of production and implementation of individual precious metals should set a subject of Russia, on the basis of their socio-economic situation and current legislation.
The Governor stressed that the adoption of this law will create jobs for the population, derive from an already spent more mineral deposits, receive a new geological information without the budget. It will also contribute to the development of the industry of small businesses and reduce the outflow of population from areas of gold mining.
- The inclusion of individuals in the subsoil will allow users to take into account the interests of the regions of Siberia and the Far East, where the economy is the foundation of the mining industry - expressed confidence the head of the Magadan region.
