The reduced capacity of the central public administration (CPA) to work out plans for reorganisation and modernisation is one of the obstacles which hinder the implementation of the CPA reform. This is the conclusion of the participants who attended the meeting of the Supervisions Consultative Committee for the CPA reform. According to the Government, this deficiency is generated by the fact that the civil servants working in the CPA are overbusy. In addition, there are no departments to analyse policy coordination. PM Vasile Tarlev specified that although the reform is implemented according to the Action Plan approved by the Government it is necessary to spur this process, including by ensuring logistic and financial support by means of local and international consulting for ministries in what concerns the Plan on organisational development. The head of the Government asked to speed up the draw-up of the draft law on CPA and of the Concept on the classification of public offices and payment of civil servants, which will be debated together with the civil society and the community of donors. The PM stressed the importance of obtaining, as a result of the reform’s implementation, an essential change in the activity of the CPA in order improve and make the services provided to citizens more efficient. At the same time, the PM said that it is necessary to implement the reform according to the good governance principles of the EU member countries. “It is absolutely necessary to change not only the content of the central public administration but also its form”, Vasile Tarlev added.
