Ministry of Interior, State Agency for National Security, Labour Inspectorate and National Revenue Agency took part of the audit. They are checking the activity of the concessionaire “Euromangan” AD, as they require all documents on the execution of the concession contract.

They are checking the observation of the labour law and the execution of the obligations of the concessionaire for the safety of the environment and water.
