(KZN.RU, May 15, Mikhail Chentsov). There are about 8,5 thousand children in
Kazan who can apply for obtaining a free permit to summer camps due to their difficult
life situation.
Now this number includes the children without parental supportб who are
under guardianship and also children from families of refugees. For them the
Government of Tatarstan has selected 1170 permits in camps and sanatoriys of Tatarstan.
Ayrat Faizov, the chairman of Committee of children and youth affairs of
Executive committee of Kazan, explained that every year every tenth Kazan family
from the categories of beneficiaries applies for free permits. The Mayor of Kazan
Ilsur Metshin promised to check personally how camps are ready for children.
The Mayor noted that considering the extension of the list of beneficiaries,
it is very important to provide this information to addressees. “Not everyone
is informed, especially when it comes to refugees. I think that for them it will
be good news therefore they have to know how to use these rights. It is
necessary to inform them about it,” - Ilsur Metshin said.
