GERB’s PG director Daniela Daritkova introduced most of the major changes to the law.

Therefore, even after a state of emergency, outbreaks can be isolated and strict measures returned.

They will again monitor the smartphones of quarantined people

The Council of Ministers will declare an emergency epidemic situation according to 8 criteria. The proposal will be made by the Minister of Health and after a risk assessment by the Chief Inspector of State Health. This change in the Health Law between the two readings of the draft was presented by the head of the GERB parliamentary group Daniela Daritkova.

The draft, originally submitted by the government, envisioned this to be done only by the Minister of Health, leading to a dispute over whether the text was unconstitutional.

To assess whether to declare an epidemic situation, it will be important if the source of the infection is transmitted in an unusual and unknown way, if it exists

health even

morbidity

It will also take into account whether there is low immunization coverage in the country and whether public health control measures may be hampered. Criteria also include whether the disease is unusual for the region, the season and the population, whether it is severe and has a high mortality rate, and whether vulnerable groups such as children and adults are at risk. It will also be important if there are recorded cases among doctors.

The Minister of Health will present by order the specific measures against the epidemic at the proposal of the Chief Inspector of State Health. They can be the prohibition of the entry of foreigners in our country, the restriction of movement in the country’s territory, as well as the temporary suspension or restriction of the work of public facilities and services provided to citizens. The measures can be for the entire territory of the country, as well as for a separate area.

Earlier in the day, Minister Kiril Ananiev said he wanted some of the measures currently in force to continue beyond July 13, citing the entry of foreigners, a 14-day quarantine for returning Bulgarians and the suspension of work in public facilities.

With the changes in the law

COVID-19 is

added to

diseases like

anger, plague,

diphtheria, anthrax and others, for which quarantine is mandatory.

Violators of health orders will be fined BGN 300 to BGN 1,000, and for repeated violations from BGN 1,000 to BGN 2,000. Patients who violate their quarantine will have to pay a fine of BGN 5,000, and the police will forcibly take them to the hospital.

Daritkova suggests that even in an epidemic situation, people who have been quarantined can be tracked through traffic data on their smartphones. This measure remains in force at this time, but until the end of the state of emergency.

GERB also proposes measures for agriculture. He is among them

and processing farms to be able to go to work without being isolated for 14 days like all the others who have encountered a patient with coronavirus. They must travel on business with only a prescription and strict hygiene.

Until the end of the year, contracts for seasonal agricultural work can be concluded for more than a day, and this time it will not be recognized as length of service, the government suggests. Expectations are that this will make it easier for fruit and vegetable producers to reach the market faster.

The unemployed should be able to conclude a contract that lasts 14 days a month for agricultural work without losing their unemployment benefit, according to another proposal. The government wants to add forced labor, which is a condition for receiving social benefits, agricultural work.

GERB also offers relief for municipalities, as monthly deductions for future expenses for the closure of landfills are postponed until the end of the year and without accruing interest. The purpose of this proposal is to give greater financial flexibility to local authorities in times of crisis. Hamid Hamid of the MRF also offers help to local authorities:

not be imposed

account seizures

from municipalities to

end of the year

GERB head of energy commission Valentin Nikolov wants electricity prices to be determined for a year ahead, not on July 1, but two months later, on September 1. The objective is that electricity does not rise in price in the next 2 months. Under his proposal, however, the EWRC will have to decide when to decide on pricing.

During this year’s summer season, the prices of umbrellas and sun loungers must be at least 50% lower than in 2019, and dealers who do not meet this requirement must suffer a property penalty of BGN 50,000, in repeated rape case. and up to BGN 100,000, they want more from GERB. The number of rescuers per station can be reduced to alleviate dealer costs.

The epidemic emergency situation, announced by the Minister of Health, which will have a term of 30 days, they want from IMRO. The Patriots propose to extend the protection of debtors to banks and collection companies for 2 months after the state of emergency. In support of tourism, they offer a state subsidy of 6,000 euros for charter flights from Bulgarian licensed carriers under an order determined by the Minister of Transport.

The BSP offers a reduced VAT on food and medicines, subsidies for individuals and state support for municipalities.

All the amendments will be discussed in a legal committee on Monday, and their final vote will be on Tuesday.
