Minister Angelkova inspects the condition of beaches at Slanchev bryag

22 August 2016

We have initiated the setting up of a task group for the image of Slanchev bryag in order to resolve the issue with the moveable stalls. This was announced by the Minister of Tourism, Nikolina Angelkova, during an inspection of the resort’s beaches.

"Overall, Slanchev bryag - tsentralen and Slanchev bryag - yug meet the requirements but there are still issues with Slanchev bryag - sever", Minister Angelkova said. The inspection of the latter found dozens of infringements, and the contract penalties may reach BGN 360 000. "The beaches are maintained and cleaned but the approved retail space has been exceeded several times over in Slanchev bryag - sever and the 50% free area requirement has not been met", Minister Angelkova explained. The infringements will be reviewed by the Interdepartmental Commission, which involved representatives of the Ministry of Tourism, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of the Environment and Waters, and of the Council of Ministers, in order to make a decision on the concession contract’s future at the end of the season.

Today’s inspection is part of the large-scale inspections of the Ministry of Tourism, which are underway at all sea beaches. 40 beach strips have been inspected thus far. The most common infringements have to do with retail space and the free area. "Overall, the infringements are minimal and are remedied in due time. Inspections will continue throughout the season", Minister Angelkova commented. The Ministry’s mobile group is still operating and responds in due time to any filed signals of wrongdoing.
