Improvement of control and supervisory activities considered at the meeting with the Head of State

Improvement of control and supervisory activities considered at the meeting with the Head of State
 On 21 May 2024, Chairman of the State Control Committee Vasily Gerasimov took part in the meeting on improving control and supervisory activities held by President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko.

 

A draft decree providing for the adjustment of regulatory legal acts in this area was submitted to the meeting.

 

The Head of State considered the proposals set out in the draft decree and, following the meeting, instructed the government and governors to finalise the document. After the conclusion of the State Control Committee on the finalised draft, it will be submitted to the President again. The deadline for this work is August this year.

Following the meeting, Vasily Gerasimov briefed journalists on the finalisation of the document.

 

"I would not consider it for certain relaxations. The draft decree contains provisions both strengthening control activities and aimed at streamlining them,’ said the Chairman of the State Control Committee.

 

The strengthening concerns mostly inspections. For instance, some business entities have started to take advantage of a two-year moratorium on inspections. With the adoption of the decree, if it is seen that the entity violates the law, then it will be allowed to carry out an inspection.

 

The streamlining concerns monitoring and technical measures to a greater extent.

‘I wouldn't suggest that this document is in any way revolutionary in nature. It is orderly. As it was noted by the Head of State, where it is not necessary to interfere in the activities of business entities, we should not do so. But where we should exercise control, they should know that in case of violation of the legislation, the responsibility will be appropriate,’ summarised the SCC Chairman.
