You never knew what additional papers would be required," says Bekbolot, owner of a medium-size construction company. The mayor's office no longer handles occupancy permits either. "It took me 6 months before the reforms, and I still could not obtain the mayor's signature. After the reforms, it took me just over a week to get my occupancy permit signed and sealed. Burkina Faso, once among the bottom 10 on the ease of , was the second fastest reformer. A multifaceted reform program cut 12 days and reduced the cost by 25%. To start, a government decree limited ...
