The traps showed very high efficiency in both cases of high and low population level of the pest. Significant catches of T. hirta were recorded in Dryanovo, Karnobat, Knezha, Kyustendil, Petrich and Plovdiv. As a whole the beetles appeared in the very end of March – beginning of April and reached their peak flight in the second half of April – beginning of May; catches were recorded up to the middle of July. The bait/traps system used in our field work showed very high species selectivity. In nine out of ten cases the catches of T.

    Annex REPORT FOR 2019 UNDER THE “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA 2012 - 2020 Operational objective: A national monitoring progress report has been prepared for implementation of Measure 1.1.2. “Performing obstetric and gynaecological examinations with mobile offices in settlements with compact Roma population”. During the period 01.07—20.11.2019, a total of 2,261 prophylactic medical examinations were carried out with the four mobile gynaecological offices to uninsured persons of Roma origin and to persons with difficult access to medical facilities, as 951 women were diagnosed with diseases. The implementation of the activity for each Regional Health Inspectorate is in accordance with an order of the Minister of Health to carry out not less than 500 examinations with each mobile gynaecological office. Financial resources of BGN 12,500 were allocated for each mobile unit, totalling BGN 50,000 for the four units. During the reporting period, the mobile gynecological offices were divided into four areas: Varna (the city of Varna, the village of Kamenar, the town of Ignatievo, the village of Staro Oryahovo, the village of Sindel, the village of Dubravino, the town of Provadia, the town of Devnya, the town of Suvorovo, the village of Chernevo, the town of Valchi Dol); Silistra (Tutrakan Municipality– the town of Tutrakan, the village of Tsar Samuel, the village of Nova Cherna, the village of Staro Selo, the village of Belitsa, the village of Preslavtsi, the village of Tarnovtsi,

Special attention is paid to the Bulgarian national frame. The survey is structured as follows: A brief description of the concept of contingency planning is made. The benefits and the process of making contingency plans for mitigating disaster damages are outlined. The main steps of the process include: − Analysing hazard and risk; − Identifying, defining and prioritizing contingencies; − Developing scenarios for the planning process; − Preparing a contingency plan for each selected scenario; − Maintaining and updating the contingency plan. Links to templates for making contingency plans by various means are given. Special attention is paid to the Bulgarian legislation for Critical Infrastructure Protection – the laws and regulations for disaster protection and especially for flood protection. Practical plans for disaster protection in Bulgaria are also analysed. Three levels of plans and measures for disaster protection are introduced: − national level; − institutional level; − municipality level. The Bulgarian national plan for disaster protection was adopted on 29.12.2010 by the Council of Ministers and its implementation is mandatory for all government bodies, legal, individual and sole proprietors in the event of disaster.

(Altered by State Gazette # 38 from 2016, valid from 20.05.2016) CLLD STRATEGY OF GOTSE DELCHEV – GARMEN – HADZHIDIMOVO LOCAL INITIATIVE GROUP Introduction During the 2007-2013 period, for the first time ever, Bulgaria managed to effectively utilize the LEADER method as a tool for decentralized management and integrated local development in rural areas. For the purpose, 35 local initiative groups, comprising 57 rural municipalities and 6 local fishing groups spanning across the territories of 17 municipalities have been established in the years prior 2013 and are still functioning. During the 2009-2011 period, we have performed activities with the purpose of preparing potential local initiative groups for implementing strategies for local development. Additionally, these activities are responsible for teaching skills and ensuring activities can happen on a communal level across the territories of potential local initiative groups under the Rural Area Development Programme. The LEADER method in Europe dates back to 1991. Since then it has been developed as a separate initiative in the EU member-states until 2007 (“Leader I” during the 1991-1993 period, “Leader II” during the 1994-1999 period and “Leader+” during the 2000-2006 period) and as for the 2007-2013 Programme Period, the initiative has been included as a part of the Programmes for Rural Area Development (PRAD) of member-states.
