Dmitry Grigorenko took part in the plenary session of the All-Russian Forum of Control Bodies in Kaliningrad
Deputy Prime Minister – Chief of Staff of the Government of Russia Dmitry Grigorenko took part in the plenary session of the All-Russian Forum of Control Authorities in Kaliningrad. During his speech, the Deputy Prime Minister presented key areas for improving the control and supervisory sphere.
In 2019, by decree of the President, a reform of control and supervisory activities was launched in the country. The risk-oriented approach formed the basis for building a modern system of state control. As Dmitry Grigorenko, who oversees the reform, noted, during this time, inspectors across the country have done a lot of work to make the inspection system effective. Today, the accuracy rate of inspections based on risk indicators is 87%. At the same time, the annual number of inspections over 5 years has decreased almost 5 times from 1.5 million inspections in 2019 to 353 thousand inspections in 2023. At the same time, against the background of a multiple reduction in the number of inspections, the overall level of safety is maintained.
“At the plenary session, colleagues shared proposals on how to further improve the system of risk assessment and management in inspections. The government will carefully consider the possibility of their legislative consolidation. Such initiatives are a good sign and today it was important to record that the regions are ready to continue to take the most active part in the reform of control activities and improve the risk-oriented approach,” said Dmitry Grigorenko.
The Deputy Prime Minister noted that the work on improving the control and supervisory sphere is moving to a new stage. It is no longer about reformist changes, but about high-quality systemic fine-tuning of the decisions taken. For this, it is extremely important that control bodies throughout the country take an active part in developing proposals for improving and simplifying the control system.
Among the innovations from the forum participants was a proposal to legislatively enshrine the possibility of using the Inspector mobile application to conduct remote inspections.
During the forum, Dmitry Grigorenko also held a meeting with business representatives from the Kaliningrad Region. The entrepreneurs gave the Deputy Prime Minister feedback on the progress of the reform and proposed to legislatively enshrine the possibility of lowering the risk category through the service of pre-trial appeal of decisions of regulatory authorities. This service is currently implemented on the State Services portal. The risk category is revised on the condition of conscientious fulfillment of mandatory requirements and compliance with a number of conditions of regulatory authorities. Lowering the risk category allows for a reduction in the scheduled visit of the inspection facility by the inspector or even eliminating it.
Dmitry Grigorenko emphasized that it is necessary to explain to businesses what grounds the control bodies use to appoint inspections. This will allow entrepreneurs to adjust their activities without the direct participation of inspectors and eliminate the risks of violations of norms and rules.
The Forum of Control Authorities is being held for the fifth time and has brought together about 700 participants. The anniversary venue was chosen to be the Baltic Federal University named after I. M. Kant in Kaliningrad. Over the course of three days, controllers from all over the country, experts, businessmen and public figures discussed current issues of development of control and supervisory activities at the present stage: digitalization of control, practices of introducing a risk-oriented approach, development of a pre-trial appeal system, prevention and others. The mission of the forum is to expand the horizons of professional skills of specialists. The forum was organized by the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia jointly with the Government of the Kaliningrad Region with the support of the Center for Strategic Research.
