The maximum volume of pensions for veterans of the Great Patriotic War, their spouses and veterans who served on the home front has been determined at the amount of 979 manat.

It is prescribed to ensure that the increase of the volume of wages is by improving the structures of institutions, enterprises and organisations and improving the effectiveness of productivity of workers, attracting unused internal reserves.
