A rating of incompetent staff will be formed and the work on raising their qualifications will be carried out. 

The ministry has also reviewed the structure of rooms in its premises. The staff have been placed on large area, so that they are able to keep an eye on each other. Citizens who come to the organization can also see how the employees are engaged in their activities. The walls and doors now provide transparency. This method also prevents corruptive factors. Such types of rooms are now being used in many developed countries of the world.
