Pursuant to the Bill (Reg. No.3289), the persons, including the minors, who resided in blockade Leningrad in the period of the Great Patriotic War are granted the status of a disabled war veteran.

However, the Committee members believe that "rendering the status of a disabled war veteran to the ineligible persons violates the logic of the effective Law and the principle of social equity".
