Dmitry Medvedev Signs Law Requiring Unscheduled Business Inspections to be Approved by Prosecutors

The law aims to improve the system of governmental audit /supervision/ and municipal audit, as well as to consistently reduce administrative barriers in the field of entrepreneurship.
The law requires unscheduled field inspections by governmental audit /supervisory/ and municipal audit bodies to be approved by prosecutors with regard to all businesses without exception. An unscheduled field inspection of legal entities or individual entrepreneurs may be carried out on the grounds provided for in Clause 2 a, b, Article 10 (2) by governmental audit /supervisory/ and municipal audit bodies after obtaining an approval of the prosecutor’s office at the place where such legal entities or individual entrepreneurs operate.
Currently, such an approval is required only for unscheduled inspections of legal entities and individual entrepreneurs falling into the category of small and medium-sized business.
