The plenary session meeting of parliament has been busy discussing budget revisions for 2015.
The changes include cuts to the 12 months of social welfare benefits for pregnant and nursing mothers who are entitled to receive prenatal and postnatal allowances provided by Social the Social Welfare Fund for a 7 month allowance and only after the birth.
The revision also plans to cut allowances for recipients of the Mongolian Mother's Glory Order 1st and 2nd class.
With the cuts the government expects to save 90 billion MNT that from the budget for social welfare for children and 30 billion MNT on benefits for mothers.
These cuts have received strong criticism from the public. Female MPs object to the decision and delivered a demand to end the cuts to social welfare for mothers and children.
