Reform academies will occur within three years rather than six months: this offer is made personally by Vladimir Putin. Scientists do not understand how in those three years will be the functioning of institutions, and they are still preparing for the protests. On how did the work on the preparation of the draft law reform RAS for the second reading of the State Duma watched “Gazety.Ru».
On the morning of the State Duma of the ad hoc working group began work under the amendments to the draft reform of the system of state Academy of Sciences and academies of science, which came to a committee of MPs, academics and other researchers, as well as various public and academic organizations. The group included not only representatives of the Duma committee on science and high technology, but also representatives of other committees, and the Academicians, in particular, the Vice-President of Russian Academy of Sciences Sergei Aldoshin substantial part of the amendments envisaged preservation of Sciences and the abolition of its liquidation. For example, a similar appeal was made on Thursday morning Science Council under the Ministry of Education, who also proposed the adoption of a special procedure for the consideration of the law (in consideration of four readings). A group of deputies from the Communist Party has made a ryadpopravok, which radically changes th e concept of the draft law on the reform of the Russian Academy of Sciences, also suggesting preservation of the existing system. Liberal Democratic Party proposed to keep the two-tier system of membership in the Russian Academy of Sciences.
Even the “United Russia” has offered as much as 52 amendments. This, coming in the middle of the working group, said Vyacheslav Nikonov, head of the Duma Committee on Education.
«Amendments will be made that everyone will like – happily said the deputy. – Academicians like the lack of liquidation of the RAS and the legal form of the Academy. The fact that they are not excluded, they would enjoy. These amendments will remove all the concerns that existed ».
from Union Academy of Sciences received a number of proposals, including the retention of the status of the RAS and its independence, the abolition of the Agency for Property Management Sciences, the exclusion of the explanatory note “false and controversial statements on the part of the inefficiency and lack of control of Sciences».
also points to an arithmetic error: a business case refers to the allocation of a reformed 514 million rubles., though, if you add up all the figures, will amount 590 million rubles. (This amount is proposed to send to the State Academy for additional rates for young people).
As representatives of the Russian government in the State Duma in the consideration of the law instead of Olga Golodets and Dmitry Livanov union offered to appoint a Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin and Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu.
met the day before with the Acting RAS President Vladimir Fortov, a former president of the Russian Academy of Sciences Yuri Osipov, head of the Academy of Medical Sciences Ivan grandfathers and rector of Moscow State University Viktor Sadovnichiy, and on Thursday – with the head of Agricultural Sciences Gennady Romanenko, the amendments to the bill proposed and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
However, this was done after the deadline – 15.00 Thursday. Up to six in the evening about what was the essence of the presidential amendments could only guess.
not know about it either President Vladimir Fortov (by the way, has just learned that yesterday, Vladimir Putin did not spare him from the prefix “Acting”), nor the members of the working group, nor even members of the president’s administration, who were in the Duma.
However, Fort cautiously suggested that the presidential amendments – is “an exit from the conflict.” “Now I do not want to talk about them (amendments) actually afraid to make a mistake, because we have not yet seen the document. It is a very serious compromise, but I’m afraid to jinx it, “- said the head of the Russian Academy of Sciences, starting in the old building of the State Duma for a meeting with the speaker of the lower house of parliament, Sergei Naryshkin. After an hour or so, Vladimir Forts happily said , that “the Russian Academy of Sciences, with its well-deserved history of the old is not lifted, it remains the same.” He also said the exclusion rules on the division of the “club of scientists” and “research institutions” and that “the leadership of institutions will remain at the Academy of Sciences».
Returning to the new building, the working group in the same enlarged committee began meeting on Science and High Technology.
In the beginning of the event committee head Valery Chereshnev said that “within three years, nothing will not change».
«Structure of the Academy of Sciences will remain unchanged. But the next three years – this is a transitional period. Throughout it will be merging with the Russian Academy of Sciences and Academy of Medical Sciences of the RAAS, as well as corresponding member will be transferred to the Academy, likely as a result of the elections, “- said the deputy, he is an academician of Russian Academy of Sciences and Academy of Medical Sciences.
Chereshnev also said that within three years will still be a special agency that will manage the assets of the Academies of Sciences, and the agency is headed by the President of Russian Academy of Sciences.
little later about the new amendments deputy has told of the “United Russia” Nikolay Bulaev. On the question of “Gazety.Ru” about who would be responsible for the rental of premises in the institutions, he replied: “That is the special agency. It will administer all property institutions. ” Bulaev reported that the head of the Institute of the Academy of Sciences on the proposal will approve a presidential council on science. “This will be done in order to avoid nepotism in the leadership of the institutions in those cases where it hurts” – said the deputy.
In the middle of the day it was reported that on Friday at the State Duma will be under pressure, and the bill is passed in the second and third readings. State Duma Speaker Sergei Naryshkin said that will not happen. When asked about the third reading Bulaev Nicholas sighed and said, “We probably will not be able to hold a third reading tomorrow …»
At the time of delivery of the material meeting was going on – it will be the result of the text of the bill, which on Friday to be considered in the second reading. A source in the committee suggested that the meeting will end at midnight. “We’re here in the Duma, to spend the night,” – said the source, “the Newspaper».
While the bill in an official form is not yet available, and those amendments that are known to cause a lot of issues and, in particular, leave the impression that nothing has fundamentally changed, except that the reform will be carried out not in six months, and during three years.
«And those corresponding member who will not be elected to the Academy, they will go begging? What will happen to these three? Make, say, an educational program for academics agricultural science to a canvas boots did not go, or what? – Ask Mikhail Gelfand, deputy director of the Institute for Information Transmission Problems, Russian Academy of Sciences, member of the Public Council under the Ministry of Education. – There are two things. First, the delay in this case is useful because it is clear that after six months you can only create a huge mess. Second, I do not care who is with who will be discharged. I believe that this is not the one subject that should be discussed. And that’s how the system will be arranged functioning of science? No corresponding member of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and science as a science. This is the subject of serious discussion. Let us hope that these three years will be spent on the creation of a reasonabl e system, rather than on academics transplanted from one chair to another. It seems to me that the point of focus in this place is inadequate.
The scientific community does not care what happens to academics, especially agriculture.
I personally find out what are all the most notorious amendments, and if they are reduced to the fact that the academics will be given three years trying to move from one bureau in the other, I will continue to speak out. That is, I will continue to speak out in any case. But if the result of the concoctions will be offered any reasonable reform plan, then it will be possible to discuss meaningful reform plan ».
«It is difficult to assess at once, because you need to watch how it all stated in the amendment – said” the Newspaper “Evgeny Onishchenko, a researcher at the Physics Institute, member of the Board of the Company scientists. – First, the scientific community will need to be adopted to study the Bill and to develop their relationship. Second, in any case – regardless of the fact that there will be improved, there will be improved, whether the moratorium of three years – to say all public organizations and the vast majority of scientists, that was totally unacceptable by the organization attempts to “reform” the elimination , the defeat – may use different words – in violation of the law, government regulations, presidential decrees. There was no public debate. Everybody tried to push through this week. It basically does not allow for normal discussion. This sequence of actions, it is totally unacceptable, and it is fatal to all reforms.
Power loses credibility and the scientific community and citizens. Scientists are people with this will not be tolerated.
Tomorrow people will come to the walls of the State Duma of flowers, with a funeral of … The assessment of a bill passed in the second reading, public organizations will make a decision about how to proceed, which hold a protest. But I think that some tensions remain in any case. The possibility of carrying out preventive protests also remains. Meetings, for example, at the end of July. Tomorrow’s protest action in any case ».
Chapter union RAS Victor Kalinushkin confirmed that the action of laying flowers to the State Duma on Friday morning will be held, and drew attention to the fact that it is not clear how the system will function in the research of the RAS.
«And these two sets of questions – about the merger and academics – I almost do not care. I am worried about the fate of the institutions, the fate of the employees. These two issues with this attitude are very minimal, so we wait for tomorrow, and we’ll see what adjustments will be made there – said Kalinushkin. – The position of the trade union set out in our statement to the deputies of the State Duma . In a bill to be introduced substantial amendments qualitatively change the situation with respect to employees of institutions, and our response will be appropriate. If the case is limited to addressing the issue of corresponding members, and academics, the reaction is severe. God bless them – with corresponding members and academics. They will understand ».
