/View.info/ Why:
– In section 2.B.2 local development, the main emphasis is on solving the problems with water supply, but how will the situation be corrected, that out of 265 municipalities in Bulgaria, 177 (66.7%) with 1315 settlements (about 26%) are at risk. Does it follow that with this version of the plan we are dooming them?
We need a special fund to reduce disparities in regional development.
– How this plan will correspond with the financial resource under the EU structural funds for the period 2021-2027. For regional development, only 50 municipalities with a population of more than 10,000 inhabitants are expected to receive financial assistance. And for the rest?
– How will business development be carried out in the settlements at risk based on loans and for innovative projects? Who in these places can develop innovative projects?
– In item 3. Implementation of the normative changes regarding territorial development strategies (Q1/2021) is recorded: “The approach and timeline adopted calls for the preparation of Integrated Territorial Development Strategies (ITDS) of each of the six Tier 2 planning regions, which will act as territorial strategies for the implementation of the ITI instrument“
Plans for the integrated development of municipalities are currently developed, the so-called PIRO) and Integrated Territorial Development Strategies. Do they follow that they go to the “trash” and new ones have to be developed? If yes: in what period and at whose expense? If new strategies/plans are to be developed how will it fulfill the stated that:“Based on the beneficiary’s forecasts, the allocation of funds in the amount of BGN 21.4 billion by year was made. An expert assessment of the distribution by demand components was also made. The main part of the funds will be realized in the form of public investments, a part is also allocated for public consumption, and the private national co-financing is included in the form of private investment. Regarding the distribution by years, it is expected in the period 2021-2023 to absorb nearly 50% of the costs. It is expected that the largest amount will be spent in 2023, after which the share of used funds will decrease” (p. 280).
sectors-energy, agriculture, demography, etc.
of private investments, means that the instrument of public-private partnership should be applied, not concessions, in order to have more transparency and better control of the commitments made. The Law on Public-Private Partnership was repealed on 15.11.2017 in a parliamentary session with only the votes of the governing coalition and without discussion. Does it follow that a new law should be adopted or the law on concessions revised, since concessions are only allowed for construction and services and it is not possible to apply them to joint production, scientific research activity. With this law, it is impossible to realize a private-public partnership, i.e. when the public authority (municipality) rents abandoned private properties for use, for the development of local and specific tourism.
carried out without regional, district and even municipal plans for industrial development, on the basis of which to build a basic industrial profile of the country. On its basis, investors should be purposefully sought, and not rely on random hits. At the same time, the state should take on the role of entrepreneur (investor with minimal business participation, sellable at a profit after successful development of the investment). Something similar to the project for the production of electric cars, with the state helping to provide the necessary infrastructure, human resources, sub-suppliers, etc. An industry with optimal national participation should be developed in order to achieve better sustainability through less dependence on foreign interests (screening of foreign investments has been introduced in the EU, but not yet in our country),
persons – 96% (in developed countries it is around 38-40%) cannot be achieved. They cannot invest in R&D, for market breakthroughs, they are highly dependent on competition, on financial, economic, any other crises, etc. It follows that there must be incentives, tax breaks for consolidation, for reinvestment.
It follows that the successful and effective implementation of the Recovery and Resilience Plan also requires changes in the regulatory framework and these must be taken into account in the schedule for implementing the Recovery and Resilience Plan. It must also have opportunities for flexibility in the time and quantitative parameters for its implementation.
In spite of these remarks, efforts must be made to change something that was wrongly conceived.
