Annual Report for the Public Administration 2004

In the year 2004 training was organized for more than 150 employees which have to make
entries and to exercise control in the 28 Regional health centres, 28 Regional education
inspectorates, the Directorates National Parks, the Basin directorates, the Regional inspections for
environment and waters and the 24 regional administrations of Sofia municipality.
In February 2004 training was organized also in relation to the use of the possibility realized
in the year 2003 for centralized provision of legal information for the Register. The participants were
employees from all ministries, administrative structures under the Council of Ministers and the 28
regional administrations.
The basic aim of the training carried out for employees making entries and executing control
on the information in the Register is the provision of methodical assistance and improvement of the
efficiency of keeping it.
The problems faced in the year 2003 in relation with the requirements for entry of
information for the regulatory regimes and the published acts for their application in the Register are
not yet overcome.
All territorial administrations have difficulties in determining the number and the type of
regulatory regimes, which are administered by the regional governors and the mayors of
municipalities, and of the issued individual administrative acts subject to entry. The diversity of the
information entered into the Register by the territorial administrations is in support to this problem.
In the year 2004 information for the regulatory regimes administered by the administrative
structures of the executive has been entered into the Register by 11 ministries, 67 structures at
central level, 8 regional administrations (Varna, Dobrich, Pazardjik, Pleven, Plovdiv, Russe, Sofia
and Jambol) and 129 municipal administration. The information entered for 580 regulatory regimes
administered by the central administration, from 1 to 4 regulatory regimes administered by the
regional administrations and from 1 to 40 regulatory regimes administered by the municipal
administrations. Out of them:
■ 54 licensing regimes are administered by the central administration and up to 8 regimes
by the municipal administrations (municipal administration Rakovski);
■ 236 permission regimes are administered by the central administration, 1 to 4 by the
regional administrations and from 1 to 24 by the municipal administrations.
■ 170 registration regimes are administered by the central administration, 1 registration
regime is administered by the regional administration and between 1 and 40 regimes by the
municipal administrations;
■ 120 coordination regimes are administered by the central administration and between 1
and 9 regimes by the municipal administration.
After the restructuring of the Agency for small and medium enterprises there is no efficient
methodical assistance and control for the correctness, completeness and actuality of the
information for the regulatory regimes because of the lack of a specific unit to carry out these
functions and which is concerned with the economic sector policy. The lack of methodical
instructions and assistance by experts competent in the field renders more difficult the work of the
employees who are obliged to make entries of information for the regulatory regimes.
In the year 2004, 382 894 individual acts are entered into the Register, out of which 270 903
are entered by the central administration and 111 991 by the territorial administrations (342 by the
regional ones, 55 634 by the municipal administrations and 56 015 by the administrations of
municipal regions). From the acts entered:
■ 36 468 are entries for licenses for economic activities (30122 licenses by the central
administration, 6 053 by the municipal administrations and 293 licenses by the administrations of
the municipal regions);
■ 209 967 are the entered permissions for economic activities (143 757 permissions from
the central administration, 88 permissions by the regional administrations, 36 546 permissions by
the municipal administrations and 29 576 permissions by the municipal regions);
