N1 HrvatskaIndependentProgressiveFactual 85Objective 906 days agoThe Croatian non-profit organization Udruga Glas poduzetnika (UGP) has proposed to the Government of Croatia the implementation of an emergency package of measures aimed at temporarily relieving entrepreneurs affected by a fire in Omis. The proposal includes tax, tourism, customs, and local fee exemptions, temporary reduction of contributions to preserve jobs, urgent non-repayable support for business space, equipment, plants, and tools, and the establishment of a single contact point for assistance. UGP argues that aid should not be limited to those whose properties were physically damaged, as others who remain intact but lost income due to the fire also need support. They emphasize the need for a predefined model of automatic relief for businesses in case of disasters like fires, floods, or earthquakes, to avoid delays and ensure timely support. The organization calls for a swift and concrete institutional response to their proposal, stressing that people cannot wait months for explanations, procedures, and shifting responsibilities.
