BULGARIA ADVANCES IN INTEGRATION OF EUROPEAN LEGISLATION- GRUNCHAROVA

Thu, Jun 14 2007 13:45 CET 126 Views

Bulgaria has made progress in the acceptance of European legislation, though some requirements have not been met yet, European Integration Minister Gergana Gruncharova said.

Though the country still has a lot of work to do, it is moving in the right direction. The percentage of measures that have not been implemented yet decreased from 27 to 23.5 per cent, Gruncharova said.

Within a month Bulgaria accepted 14 directives and 11 are to be ratified.

Bulgaria still lacks information on the upcoming European Commission report on its reform progress to be issued in the end of May.

"I expect objective and impartial text on everything that happened in the justice and home affair sector and the respective notes and recommendations," Gruncharova said.

Gruncharova said that she was hoping for constructive criticism on which the Justice Ministry could base its plans for further reforms.
