The Ministry of Justice starts inspections on the Registry Agency and the Commercial Register in order to eliminate irregularities and improve services. There will also be a review of public procurement procedures in recent years, judicial reforms and the fight against corruption. The news was reported by Minister of Justice Prof. Yanaki Stoilov at a press conference that presented the priorities of his team.

The work of the Bulgarian Citizenship Directorate in recent years will also be checked. "We will be absolutely intolerant of bad practices," Stoilov vowed, pointing out that for years the most problematic areas have been related to granting of citizenship, places for detentions, and registrations.
