MINSK, 16 February (BelTA) – President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko demanded that the structure of the ministries and government agencies be optimized within half a year. The head of state made the relevant statement at a session to improve the structure of the Agriculture and Food Ministry on 16 February, BelTA has learnt. It is homework for officials and agencies: to make the structure of all subordinate bodies comprehensible by the start of presidential elections, Alexander Lukashenko said. “If ministers, governors and other officials are not able to do that, it is very bad, it is a very serious “signal”,” the President added. According to Alexander Lukashenko, red tape among the government officials should be eliminated; it is impossible to achieve that unless the government agencies are structured in the proper way. “Everybody knows full well that we have invested a lot of money in the rural revival and efficient agricultural production. This process continues. But I would like to emphasize that the rural revival program will in large part be completed in the future five year term,” the President said. БЕЛТА
