President wishes Seimas could “cleanse of nomenclature-style governance”

“Strong will and determination is needed to liberate from nomenclature practice of state governance. Forestry companies, regional road administrations, the Centre of Registers and other institutions that are part of the state system should cleanse of corruption and the tradition of hiring party fellows,” the president said in her message read at the start of the new spring session, which sill close at the end of June.

In her words, the parliament should also increase the efficiency of the public sector, therefore, the time has come to decide on limited number of terms for top executives of state and municipal companies and institutions, and these are the “decisions that will start a new phase in state governance.”
