Purchase of land under privatized enterprises in the regions will be encouraged

In the first half of this year more than 270 areas  were privatized under privatized joint-stock companies, as well as private facilities. At a meeting last week, the State Committee on Property was instructed to promote the privatization of land in the country.

From the beginning  were leased to land more than 200 objects. Nevertheless, the pace of privatization and leasing of land is low. In 2013  720 objects were privatized, which brought to the state budget of 17.4 million manats, about half of the receipts from the privatization of state property.

In addition, in the first half were privatized about 370 small enterprises and facilities, including vehicles. At the money   auctions  were sold package  stocks of 17 joint-stock companies, at investment competitions - of four joint-stock companies.  Officially the State Committee for Property reported   the sale through  investment tenders  of  joint -stock companies: "Roza-Chorek", "Azersenayetikinti" and "Baki Chaychekici".

Currently  the State Committee for Property owned 59 state-owned enterprises and stakes in 256 joint-stock companies.

Under the law, the land under privatized object is offered to  the  owner of the object. In case of refusal to privatize or lease, the land shall be put up for auction.

The State Committee for Property  does not report the income to the state budget from privatization in January-June this year. 08D
