The Russian Cabinet of Ministers supported the proposal concerning the conduct of religious ceremonies.

The State Duma faction "New People" has proposed banning religious services in non-residential premises.

This was reported by the TASS agency, citing the text of the draft, which is at its disposal.

It is noted that we are talking about non-residential premises located in apartment buildings.

According to the initiators from the New People, holding religious ceremonies limits the convenience of the residents of the buildings and also causes discontent among the apartment owners.

The Cabinet of Ministers supported this initiative, taking into account that its authors will finalize the document.

The difficulties are related to the fact that the legislation lacks a clear concept of the systematic conduct of religious rites.

Therefore, the changes proposed by the law do not comply with the principle of legal certainty, which will entail difficulties in its application in practice.
