Setting unit / subdivision or persons responsible for coordinating the process of optimization of permits and implementation of one-stop solutions.
(According to Government Decision no. 122 of 18.02.2014 on public services reform program for the years 2014-2016, the State Chancellery is responsible for coordinating the reform of public services and has to create a division dedicated to this purpose. Reform of permits, which are public services, would fit perfectly in this process. Moreover, optimization of permits involves many government authorities, including ministries and could affect their institutional interests and / or require decisions related to exclusion of overlapping and application principle of proportionality of state intervention by permissive documents. Therefore it is crucial that this process be coordinated and controlled at high level, involving regular discussions within the Government. If the State Chancellery will not be prepared to undertake promptly this process, the coordination at the initial stage could be provided by the Ministry of Economy. Technical support will be provided for this purpose by the Ministry of Economy and technical assistance projects in the field of regulatory reform)

(The working group would include representatives of the following institutions:
- State Chancellery

- E-Governance Center,
- SE „Posta Moldovei”
- Other central public administration authorities involved in the issuance of permits that were addressed in the study in question,
- Local government authorities (can be selected representatives who created the Centers for Information and Service Provision under the USAID LGSP Project)
The working group activities can involve, as appropriate, representatives of:
- Business associations,

Consulting and promoting the draft law on amendments to Law no. 160 of 22.07.2011 on regulating through authorization of entrepreneurial activity.
(The draft law is attached to the study on one-stop-shop. The draft comes to define clearer and in more detail principles of good regulation and introduce some new principles, which would help reduce cases of inconsistency of permissive acts with principles of good regulation and will eliminate some deficiencies that exist between Law 160 and Law 161 regarding the implementation of one-stop-shop in entrepreneurial activity. Additionally, it introduces new principles to facilitate the creation of one-stop-shop solutions. Given that the Law 160 contains the Nomenclature of permits, a new version of the Nomenclature has been proposed, which excludes from the list mainly the confirming documents, documents which are no longer applied or needed and introduces corrections to names of documents and issuing authorities. In total the new version of nomenclature eliminates about 30% of documents. It is important to note that subsequently, following the results of gradual review of permits according to the below action, the list of documents in the nomenclature may be amended so that some documents may be removed or new documents might be added from those 69 permits which are currently not being included in the nomenclature).

Development and promotion of amendments to normative acts related to permits to remove permits or bring them in line with principles of good regulation. This will include the following sub-actions:
- Grouping permits according to regulatory issues and determining the composition of working groups for their review;
- Examination by the public authorities of passports of permits and recommendations for their improvement and establishing the necessary amendments to the regulatory framework for elimination or optimization of permits;
- Drafting, consulting and promotion of draft amendments of the legislation, including changes in Nomenclature of permits of Law. 160 of 22.07.2011 on regulating through authorization of entrepreneurial activity;
- Developing the new version of passports for priority permits, which will describe in detail the new requirements which will be used to develop specifications for one-stop solutions.
(First the priority permits identified in the study will be addressed, for which later one-stop-shop solutions will be developed. In case if the review of some of priority permits will exceed the terms for initiating development of one-stop-shop solutions the working group may propose to proceed with one-stop-shop solutions development for processed permits and other permits may be included at a later stage.
Packages of amendments could be drafted by authorities / areas and promoted separately, thus avoiding the risk of blocking the process as was the case with guillotine 2+ and having a more dynamic process. Moreover, such approach will create incentives for continuous work in identifying improvement opportunities for permits)
