For instance, accoridng to information of Valery Tsimakin, a member of the Pinsk organization of wheelchair disabled, they are unable to enter the main office of Belahraprambank. The organization conducted monitoring concerning the creation of the barrierless environment in the city and registered many violations of the Belarusian legislation in this sphere.

Sometimes such cases are quite strange. For instance, the recently built Pinsk office of Belahraprambank (in the photo) is equipped with a nice rampant and a special lift to the second floor. However, as it was found out, no members of the bank personnel know how to operate the lift. Thus, wheelchair disabled are able just to come to the bank door.
