The Bulgarian Ministry of Interior will assign to the Ministry of Defense the repair of the fence along the Bulgarian-Turkish border, for which the caretaker government allocated BGN 5 million at its last meeting, a transcript of the meeting reveals. 

According to Interior Minister Boyko Rashkov, this is tactically correct, as no contracts will be signed with foreign companies. He expects the repairs to start during the term of office. 
It is also clear from the transcript that the caretaker government refuses to appoint the concessionaires of 7 sea beaches, as the procedure was started by a regular cabinet and must also be completed by a regular cabinet. The reason for postponing the decision on the concessions was the moratorium imposed by the parliament in April on the decisions of the Borissov Cabinet 3.
