Dmitry Krutoy spoke about the initial results of the implementation of Decree No. 7 "On the Development of Entrepreneurship". Thus, the number of self-employed individuals has increased by 26,000 people, and the number of craftspeople by 18,000-20,000. The number of agro-ecotourism estates has exceeded 3,000. The number of clients using their services is also growing. "According to this year's estimates, there will be about 400,000. With the visa-free regime, we expect the number of visitors to exceed the psychological mark of half a million next year," the minister believes.
He added that more than 2,500 companies have benefited from the notification principle for commencing activities provided for in the decree. Entrepreneurs have responded very positively to the tenfold reduction in excessive administrative regulatory requirements in fire safety, the sanitary-epidemiological sphere, and environmental protection.
