Romanian Deputy's Bold Plan to Reform Public Administration

Romanian Deputy Anamaria Gavrilă Unveils Plan to Reform Public Administration Romania's public administration is facing significant challenges. Anamaria Gavrilă, a deputy and president of the Young People's Party (POT), has presented a plan to overhaul the system. Her proposals aim to improve efficiency and reduce bureaucracy while protecting the rights of public sector workers. Gavrilă's plan centers on digitalization. "We will digitalize public institutions—not people," she stated in a recent video address. This initiative is intended to streamline processes and reduce the need for excessive paperwork. The plan also includes a gradual reduction of unnecessary government positions, achieved by halting new hires in non-essential areas. To support the transition of public sector employees to the private sector, Gavrilă proposes offering clear tax incentives to companies that hire them. The deputy emphasizes a human-centered approach. "Public officials are part of our society. They have worked, have families, and need respect," Gavrilă said, highlighting her commitment to a fair and responsible reform process. She assures that no one will be left behind. Gavrilă's plan is ambitious but represents a potential solution to long-standing issues in Romania's public administration. Its success will depend on implementation and political will.
