Corruption and scandals
- Bivol.bg: took no action after violations were found at the ministry. Bivol.bg writes that audit reports of the state financial inspection agency (АДФИ), the Court of Audit and the ministry itself, which the outlet holds, found violations of the law at the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy that damaged the budget and European funds, and that "Lazar Lazarov took no action for a deeper investigation of the established violations" (our translation). — Bivol.bg, 29 Jun 2023
