The government of Azerbaijan makes every effort to ensure provision of services rendered by state bodies on the basis of "single window” principle, the Head of the Delegation of the European Union to Azerbaijan Alexandra Nerisanu said Sept. 21.

The completed work was aimed at simplifying the procedures of applying to state bodies for citizens, ensuring the fight against corruption, transparency in documentation, the head of EU delegation said.

Nerisanu believes that the implementation of training in this area, conduct of mutual exchange of experiences of countries with each other serve to increase the number of services in the form of the "single window" model.

The head of EU delegation said that the simplification of procedure for issuance of licenses is very important for the economic development of the country.

"In recent years, Azerbaijan has conducted research related to the economic and business environment, and the conclusion was made that the "ASAN Service" should continue to work in the country in order to provide services to the business sector. The state supports these measures at a high level. The "ASAN Service" system is a very important component for the economic development of the country", Nerisanu said.

The head of EU delegation expressed hope that the relevant platform would contribute to the improvement of the activity of agencies in Azerbaijan.
