The information needed to obtain licenses, authorizations, certificates and other kinds of legal documents for starting or developing a business or about the confirmation or annulment of other legal rights will be provided at one-stop offices. Under a bill approved by the Government, the one-stop office can be created at local level, with the involvement of local public authorities of the first degree, and at national level, Info-Prim Neo reports.
The flow of information from companies will be verified and coordinated by the involved public institutions over the Internet or other communication means. The companies will not need to go to these institutions. The final document can be taken from the one-stop office.
The on-stop office method is not new in Moldova. Such offices were set up within technical assistance projects of foreign donors and at the suggestion of the subdivisions of the Chamber of Trade and Industry and entrepreneurial organizations. Some of them disappeared because they were not supported by the local public authorities or the institutions involved.
“The creation of one-stop offices by law will exclude the subjective attitude in implementing this mechanism and will reduce the time and costs incurred by the entrepreneurs,” said Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy Valeriu Lazar.
The bill on the implementation of the one-stop office in entrepreneurial activity was approved together with a bill on the authorization of entrepreneurial work. This confirms the results of the campaign to inventory and optimize the licenses issued by the public authorities to companies, the so-called Guillotine 2+.
The campaign was carried out by the Ministry of Economy and USAID/BIZTAR Project. During several months, there were identified 400 certificates, authorizations, permits and other legal licenses issued by 55 public authorities. Thirty-eight of them were eliminated, while others were subject to amendment. 272 licenses issued by 47 authorities were included in a list attached to the bill on the authorization of entrepreneurial work.
