Ukraine's Ministry of Energy and Coal Industry has proposed that the Cabinet of Ministers should increase the average of gas consumption by the public (if counters are not installed) from 3 cubic meters to 4.4 cubic meters per capita a month.

The relevant draft document has been posted on the website of the energy ministry.

Earlier, Head of Naftogaz Ukrainy Andriy Kobolev said there had been a sharp decline in average gas consumption which put people off installing meters, moreover some citizens appealed to regional gas companies asking that they dismantle the previously installed metering devices.
