Pricing in the construction industry in Russia is now arranged so that trillions of rubles are flying away in a “black hole”, said Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Kozak at the meeting of the state Council on Tuesday.
He called the issue of pricing “stuffy, with lots of negative historical accretions theme”, reports “RIA Novosti”. “In the hole, actually in the “black hole”, leaving trillions of rubles, those are preliminary estimates,” said Kozak.

The bill, which should solve the problem of overestimation, is in the state Duma, said Deputy Prime Minister. According to him, the bill will radically upgrade old estimated ratios and to establish monitoring in the cost of materials and labor.
