The restructuring events database contains factsheets with data on large-scale restructuring events reported in the principal national media and company websites in each EU Member State. This database was created in 2002.
The Minister for State Policy for Disasters and Accidents Mrs Emel Etem is going to hire 260 new persons until the end of 2007.

The other 110 will be engaged in the operational centers of the Civil Defence, where information for eventual nature disasters is going to be collected. A pilot project for a common emergency number 112 is going to be launched in Southeastern Bulgaria in the middle of 2007.
