Upon leaving, UK ambassador mentions high bureaucracy and Labor Code as barriers for investors
Although it has become easier for a foreign company to set up business in the country, the bureaucracy still remains high. The Romanian authorities should also consult the business people more before enforcing new rules, Robin Barnett has also said.
On a personal level, he has mentioned the traffic issue, the driving in the country and the lack of punctuality he has faced in Romania during his term in the country.
Before coming to Romania as ambassador, Robin Barnett was the head of the UKvisa department, where he has worked for four years.
