A/HRC/43/CRP.7 This has caused hundreds of thousands of pensioners to lose their pension payments. The policies also disproportionately affect women, who represent the majority of IDPs and persons crossing the contact line.27 39. OHCHR regrets that the Parliament of Ukraine has still not adopted legislation that would provide the conflict-affected population registered or residing in armed groupcontrolled territory access to their pension. On 5 February, the Parliament tabled draft law No. 2083-d,28 which would have allowed pensioners to apply for and access their pensions either personally or through an authorised representative at any pension department in Government-controlled territory regardless of their place of residence. It would also have allowed for retroactive pension payments without time limitations for individuals residing in territory controlled by the self-proclaimed ‘republics’. OHCHR is concerned that the Government did not support the draft law on the argument that the State budget would be unable to cover the expenditure. 2. Housing, land and property rights 40. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which Ukraine has committed to implementing, contains housing, property and land-related targets and indicators under SDGs 1 (no poverty), 2 (zero hunger), 5 (gender equality), 11 (sustainable cities and communities) and 15 (life on land), with links to several other SDGs, for instance SDG 3 (good health and well-being), 6 (clean water and sanitation) and 16 (peace, justice and strong institutions). OHCHR notes positive developments regarding housing rights of the conflict-affected population, such as further amendments to Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 947, 29 which would improve access to compensation for destroyed homes. For example, it would increase the maximum amount of compensation from UAH 300,000 to UAH 400,000 (approximately $12,300 to $16,400), which would be calculated based on the square footage of the destroyed home. OHCHR also welcomes the Parliamentary Committee on Human Rights establishment of a working group to develop the draft law on compensation for property that the population has lost due to the armed conflict in Donetsk and Luhansk regions and the occupation of Crimea. 41. Military use of civilian property 42. OHCHR continued to document the extended military use of civilian property without lease agreements and/or compensation. Residents of Government-controlled Avdiivka, Krasnohorivka, Marinka and Novotroitske (all in Donetsk region) informed OHCHR that their housing was being used by the military without compensation, and that some continued to receive utility bills generated by the military. Lack of investigations into looting allegations 43. OHCHR continued to observe a lack of investigations into allegations of looting of civilian property by members of the military and law enforcement in locations of Donetsk region such as Avdiivka, Krasnohorivka, Marinka and Novotroitske. 3.
