Summary

The bill provides for allowing the state to pay compensation to cover the costs of housing loan interest for conscripts. Since a conscript cannot take a full payment leave in the case of a housing loan, the interest on the housing loan will be reimbursed to the conscript during his military service. An allowance may also be paid for the right to drive a motor vehicle of category B acquired before military service, as it allows for basic skills training to be provided in a shorter period of time. One-time the amount of the support is 1000 euros. The difference is that the aforementioned allowance is paid to those conscripts who are in 11-month military service after the entry into force of the law. The decision and payment of the support is made by the Defense Resources Board. Compensation for the purchase of individual equipment will be simplified for active military personnel. A procedure will be created according to which active servicemen will purchase certain clothing items through certain e-shops and for this compensation will be paid to the active military every year. At the same time, the Income Tax Act is supplemented with a provision according to which compensation for the purchase of clothing equipment is not subject to income tax. In addition, the regulation regarding the protection of war graves will be updated and the decision-making level regarding war graves will be brought below the ministerial level. This makes the implementation of the law more flexible and operational. With the amendment of the Heritage Protection Act a provision to end the dual protection of war graves is added.
