The Ministry of National Economy (MNE) is the lead co-ordinator, overseeing physical and economic development, and the cities of regional importance must also develop local programmes. The city PTDs can be approved by the maslikhats only one month after the approval of the oblast PTD. In 2012, small towns and monotowns also acquired the opportunity to develop their “Comprehensive Development Plan” (KoMWieKCHbiu man pa3eumua/CDP). The CDP has not yet been integrated into the national economic planning system.
