A solution to the problem of the lack of elevators in the refugee apartment buildings

A solution was finally found to the burning problem of the lack of elevators in the apartment buildings of the refugee settlements and the inability of the elderly to get up and down from their apartments.

As announced by the Home Office, temporary electric chairs will be placed on the stairs at the Parliamentary Refugee Committee.

The electric chairs will be controlled by remote control, will be able to carry people weighing up to 140 kg and will have safety belts.

Ramps will be installed to allow access for the elderly in wheelchairs.
