The Merger of Ministries Will Not Reduce Bureaucracy 0 15

One of the leaders of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, entrepreneur Normunds Bergs, reacted to the health minister's initiative to merge the Ministry of Welfare with the Ministry of Health. "The merger of ministries in no way reduces bureaucracy. Bureaucracy is reduced if we do not engage in unnecessary tasks. If we do not request applications and approvals. If we do not hold commission meetings and conduct inspections. If we do not ask for various permits. Ultimately, if we eliminate institutions," N. Bergs outlined the "recipes" for real bureaucracy reduction.
