"One large industrial enterprise can be potentially checked by about 60 different government agencies during a year. Some of them come for several times. This fact can even cause a production stop, and enterprises are forced to stand by because of audits", – said Dmitry Firtash.

According to him, in 10-15 days the Registry will be transferred to the government. "Every entrepreneur should understand who and how many times can auditenter prises", – said Dmitry Firtash.
