This is stated in the presidential decree on the implementation of the law On the State Budget of Uzbekistan for 2021.

The document says that the unused part of the funds will be transferred to the state budget.

The main directions of using the funds of the Anti-Crisis Fund were determined as follows:

- financing of measures to combat the spread of the coronavirus infection,
