State Control Committee to monitor Belarusian nuclear station construction

      The State Control Committee will systematically monitor the spending of state budget money on the construction of the Belarusian nuclear power plant.
      Mr Vasily Gerasimov, Chairman of the State Control Committee for Grodno Oblast, was made familiar with the progress of the construction of the Belarusian nuclear power plant during a working trip to Ostrovets District.
      The construction of the first power-generating unit is in full swing, with 1,500 workers employed on site. Preparatory works are nearly complete, with many facilities of the industrial base now operational.
      Vasily Gerasimov remarked that taking into account the investment of considerable sums by the state budget the State Control Committee will monitor their effective spending. Apart from auditing the State Control Committee is willing to assist the nuclear power plant directorate with organizing the work.
