Officials of the Federal Tax Service (FTS) have proposed canceling quotas for companies that invite more than 1000 workers from abroad, says FTS representative Ekaterina Egorova.

Egorova also says that some members of the FTS are proposing that employers be required to pay for Russian language lessons for their foreign employees.
