The assumptions used in the calculation are that the capacity of the shelter would be 200 people on average, and the capacity of the place to shelter – 100 people. The assumption is also used that indicative shelters are provided for 624,000 inhabitants – 3,120 shelters, while shelters are provided for 1,249,000 inhabitants – 12,490 shelters.

Evaluating the existing and potential sources of funding that could motivate the public to create shelters or shelters in existing buildings or parts of them, IeM has offered several possible solutions.

Sources of funding could be European Union (EU) fund funding and a state support program, which would be financed from the state basic budget funds allocated to the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Regional Development (VARAM). If the funding of EU funds fully or partially covered the renovation or establishment of shelters or shelters, the state support program would not be necessary or its volume would be smaller.

Similarly, the source of funding could be municipal investment project applications for receiving a state budget loan. Likewise, at the state or local government level, tax incentives could be offered to those who renovated or created shelters or shelters in the building or its parts.

Also, the funds could be taken from the co-financing of the municipality.

Taking into account the above, the motivating financial mechanism that would not have a significant impact on the state budget should be supported – funding from EU funds for the renovation or creation of shelters or places where shelter can be provided, the draft report states.
