Spring Law - estimates on the other hand

    On the Law of Spring (aka the Federal Law of June 6, 2017 No. 374-ФЗ “On Amending the Federal Law on Combating Terrorism”), many copies were broken. Estimates of experts in the field of costs of its implementation contained amounts of billions and trillions. 2016 ended in controversy and expectations. In the new year, accurate estimates of the costs of implementing the law have already appeared. The truth is not from the providers.

    First of all, we recall that each law in the course of its development is accompanied by a rationale indicating the costs of implementing the law. The relevant rationale for law 374-FZ stated that it does not require budget funding. Even then, it caused healthy skepticism, since any actions assigned to any organ require funding - in particular, in connection with the need for off-site events, daily monitoring and so on and so forth. Which actually was confirmed.

    Due to the fact that the public initiative No. 36F28432 on the repeal of the Yarovaya law gained the required number of votes, an expert opinion was prepared in accordance with the rules for considering public initiatives, in the framework of which various departments spoke out . Including Roskomnadzor.

    Roskomnadzor is an organization that is often criticized. But it was she who announced the figures for the costs of implementing the law. And it’s nice.


    At the beginning of its response, Roskomnadzor indicates that despite the existing requirements of the law, it does not have the authority to exercise appropriate control (the response contains a list of laws that need to be amended). That is, at the moment there are no necessary legal acts for ministries and departments that must ensure the implementation of the law.

    Further, the response indicates the number of telecom operators subject to the law and related checks.


    The annex to the answer specifies the number of data centers.


    Next, we will talk about how (most likely, since there are no specific requirements - they should be developed by the Government of the Russian Federation) it will be necessary to check.


    That is, the equipment that will have to be installed by telecom operators will have to implement not only information storage functions, but also periodic monitoring functions with the transmission of information on compliance or non-compliance by telecommunication operators with the requirements of the law.

    And at the end of the answer is the amount of funding that Roskomnadzor needs to carry out the alleged checks



    A rather big number - and this is only one organization among those who must bear the costs in the framework of fulfilling the requirements of 374-FZ.

    Update. In the first plate in the line “material costs” in the value cell is 330 thousand rubles, and in the calculation cell - 826 thousand rubles. So the costs are still slightly higher. Thanks aterentiev89

    Update 2. Due to the fact that the discussion constantly raised the question of how large the amount is, I’ll add an infographic on the cost of creating state GIS (in thousand rubles)

    Naturally, the traffic interception control system is not a GIS, therefore numbers are just a guide
