Bulgaria initiates an administrative reform aimed at reducing its budget deficit by laying off 5,042 public employees and restructuring institutions. The largest cuts will affect the Ministry of Interior, Agriculture, and Regional Development. Initial layoffs have already been announced in various agencies, with significant reductions planned for the Ministry of Interior. The government also aims to decrease the number of administrative structures and leadership positions. Additionally, the reform includes merging agencies and optimizing public enterprises, with further measures to enhance coordination and control within the administrative framework.
