Improving the provision of public services

Improving the provision of public services is the goal of the law-in-draft, which deputies of the parliamentary Committee on Education, public associations and the media discussed at today’s meeting in the first reading. The author of the legislative initiative is the Government of the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic.

The project proposes to clarify the concept of “public services” and expand the composition of the bodies that can provide these services, adding municipal authorities to it.

The law-in-draft proposes to consolidate the right of the Government to establish a list of government services and determine the procedure and timing for ensuring the possibility of ordering and receiving government services in electronic form.

Deputies of the relevant committee will recommend the draft law on amendments and additions to the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic Law “On the organization of the provision of public services” for adoption in the first reading at one of the next plenary meetings.

Representatives of the legislative and executive authorities during the discussion of the law-in-draft told about the development of the Public Services Portal of the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic.

The Unified Register of Public Services includes today more than 500 public services (about 100 of them can be ordered and received electronically). The list is regularly updated at the same time. Excessive government services are abolished, new ones are introduced. For example, related to changes in tax regimes. The process of transferring public services into electronic form is carried out in stages, based on the needs of the population. Deputies of the relevant parliamentary Committee inquired about difficulties faced by executive authorities.

According to the acting Head of the Ministry of Digital Development, the department plans to convert approximately half of the public services recorded in the Unified Register into electronic form in the future.
