Bulgarian lawmakers have definitely approved a bill under which the construction of any fence along Bulgaria's borders can be initiated without public procurement procedures.
The amendments to the Public Procurement Act, submitted by the nationalist Patriotic Front coalition which backs the government, were passed on a first reading in January.
