Bulgaria’s Transport Minister, Georgi Peev, announced the government is considering transferring the State Automobile Inspection Agency to the Ministry of Interior. Currently, the agency, responsible for oversight within the automotive sector, operates under the Executive Agency framework. The potential move aims to streamline operations and potentially enhance control. Minister Peev revealed this consideration during a press conference, though details regarding the rationale and implementation timeline remain unclear. This shift would place vehicle inspections under the purview of law enforcement. The government is currently in discussions with the Ministry of Interior regarding the feasibility and logistics of the transfer. Further announcements are expected as the evaluation progresses.
