Parent organizations launched a protest in front of the National Assembly building over the Social Services Act which enters in force today. The normative act had to enter in force on January 1, but was postponed with 6 months after a series of protests. Several days ago, Bulgaria’s Minister of Labor and Social Policy Denitsa Sacheva announced that after the postponement of the law which had to enter in force on January 1, three large discussions with citizens and non-governmental organizations were helа and that MPs held discussions in Parliament. The protesting parent organizations announced that the law was discussed only with people close to the Minister of Labor and Social Policy, not with interested parties. They contend that they will continue protesting each Wednesday in front of the National Assembly until the Social Services Act is repealed.
