Interior Minister Dmitry Dbar noted that they can withdraw the animals from the owners, but there will be a problem where to put them later. Head of government also pointed out the inadmissibility of using open cars for transporting tourists.
“This is an unsafe transport and such trips are fraught with serious consequences. This kind of activity is prohibited in Sochi, ”stressed Alexander Ankvab.
He also drew attention to the fact that most of the drivers of open cars are not registered in tax authorities.
“The traffic police's work after border opening showed that a huge number of drivers are not citizens of Abkhazia. The drivers of these cars are not registered as entrepreneurs. They do not pay taxes, most of the proceeds are taxed. But the most important thing is to ensure the safety of people, and we must amend the legislation, ”Ankvab said.
As for recreation facilities, according to Ankvab, there are many more hotels and rest houses on the Internet than officially registered in the republic.
“If we compare data on the Internet and statistics of the Ministry of Tourism, then this is heaven and earth. Everything is several times higher than reporting. Not all recreation facilities in Gagra district, Sukhum and other places were included in the reporting. 426 accommodation facilities are registered in the Ministry of Tourism, three times more on the Internet, ” head of government said.
President of Abkhazia Aslan Bzhaniya informed the meeting participants about the recently prepared report of the Ministry of Justice.
“14 thousand legal entities are registered in the ministry, but no more than five thousand registered in the tax register. There is a problem in accounting. Many recreation facilities are open only during the season, and are closed in winter, so they do not consider it necessary to pay taxes. Everything needs to be put in order and systematized. People expect it from us, ” Aslan Bzhaniya stressed.
