The Party of Regions is not planning to raise the question of increasing gas tariffs for households, Party of Regions MP Oleksiy Plotnikov has said live on Channel 5.

"Until the mechanisms of targeted assistance to low-income people are worked out, the question of raising gas tariffs for households will not be considered," he said.

"If the system of targeted assistance to the vulnerable segments of the population is elaborated, then it will be possible to return to this issue. Now I see no grounds to raise prices," Plotnikov said.
