One-stop shops for founding new companies

Government spokesman Yiorgos Petalotis on Tuesday stressed that the government had fulfilled pledges to create a "one-stop-shop" service for founding new companies, which was a real and substantive innovation and not just a "paper exercise". 
 
"The government has the will and is bringing about substantive, robust and human-centred growth through overall planning," he said, pointing out that 24 new businesses had been founded using the new service during its first two days of operation. 
 
Petalotis said this would bring important benefits for the public sector but also the general public and the competitiveness of the economy, where the problem of bureaucracy was a major factor hampering growth. 
 
"It is a work that demands constant supervision but shows the directions of the Greek public sector," he added, calling the new service a "vehicle of innovation and progress" that would reduce the factors impeding every business effort.
