Alcohol for the regions
Russia
The FNS thus also wants to deprive the federal Ministry of Agriculture of its control functions within the alcohol industry, RIA Novosti reports.
-We consider that it will be favourable to transfer all powers on control over alcohol production and sales to the federal subjects, which will allow them [the regions] to take measures on the protection of the population’s health and living conditions, a letter from the FNS reads.
Head of the taxation service, Mr. Mikhail Mokretsov, says that the regions already have the necessary control mechanisms, which easily can be applied. Most regions have established special license chambers and centres for goods control, as well as other control structures, RIA Novosti reports.
