ZAGREB, July 3, 2020 – The Ministry of Construction and Physical Planning has signed two agreements valued at HRK 70 million with 54 local government units for the digitisation of acts required in construction, and for the purchase of computer equipment, the ministry informed on Friday.
The ministry is intensively continuing its activities aimed at further digitising acts related to construction, accelerating administrative procedures, and the issuance of building permits, which should further simplify and reduce the costs of those procedures for contractors and citizens.
More than 85% of the funds are to be secured from the EU Regional Development Fund for the implementation of the ministry’s physical planning IT system (ISPU).
The ministry recalled that ISPU, as a state inter-operable and multi-platform system, has been continually developed and upgraded since 2013. The total value of that European project for the system’s further development, which will be implemented until 1 January 2022, amounts to HRK 131 million, HRK 111 million of which has been secured from the EU Regional Development Fund.
