EURO 2012 Granted Money

General Prosecutor of Ukraine has checked on the legal use of granted money for UEFA EURO 2012 preparation in Ukraine. As expected the results have appeared to be very interesting and rather disappointing. Therefore, some functionaries have appropriated illegally lots of money. Nevertheless, nobody believed in another scenario that preparation of Ukraine will pass without use of “intricate national peculiarities of Ukrainian character”.
On this ground Lviv has distinguished dramatically. There is an action in Trial court about invalidation of contract between Lviv Communal Enterprise “Agency for Lviv stadium construction”, LLC (limited liability company) “Engineer-constructor company “Azovintex” and German enterprise “arenaCom GmbH”. The problem is the latter has received 1.37 million euro instead 22 thousand of real value, according to check performed by Lviv controlling and auditing service.
Also Lviv Procurator Office carries out several audits on legal use of granted 18 million euro destined for government state-owned enterprise “Agency for EURO 2012 facilities construction in Lviv”.
The same situation with illegal appropriation of granted money for EURO 2012 preparation is in Kyiv. Particularly, Pechersky Raion Prosecutor Office has established that 22 million euro has been appropriated during Olympic stadium seats dismantling by director of a government state-owned enterprise. The action is already brought against negligent and dishonest chief.
In addition, Kyiv Prosecutor Office audits on legality of the purchase goods and services and use of granted money by the Communal Enterprises “Kyiv Metropolitan Railway” and “International Airport “Boryspil”.
Moreover, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast Prosecutor Office checks on lawfulness 11 tenders for purchasing goods and services to the amount of 62.000 euro, granted for “Dnipropetrovsk Oblavtodor” (enterprise that occupies with construction and upkeep of oblast roads).
Week ago, The Cabinet of Minister of Ukraine revised value of preparation and operation of EURO 2012 in Ukraine and diminished it by 100 million euro or is 1 % down. Now total expenses are up to 10 billions euro.
