A moratorium on state inspections at micro, small and medium-sized enterprises could be instituted for a period of a year. The measure applies to fiscal, financial inspections, inspections to determine the quality of products and services and others. This is provided in a bill that was approved by the parliamentary commission for appointments and immunities, IPN reports.
Bill author Alexandru Slusari said the MPs of the Party “Dignity and Truth Platform”, the Action and Solidarity Party and the Democratic Party voted in favor of the bill. “The provisions of the law implemented during a calendar year will ensure the entrepreneurs will not be subject to administrative control by the inspection bodies and to abusive actions taken in most of the cases by representatives of these bodies with the aim of fining enterprises and covering the financial gap created as a result of the bank fraud. The measure will help improve the investment climate,” stated the MP.
