The citizens’ initiatives Freedom for All and Bulgarian Parent Central Committee are demanding that the 3rd November order by Health Minister Stoycho Katsarov, enforcing a green certificate mandate, be repealed. They have lodged an appeal with the Administrative Court, Sofia, describing the green certificate as discriminatory and contrary to the law.
