Salariații statului nu vor mai putea fi consilieri locali sau județeni. Cum s-a ajuns la măsura care ar putea depopula consiliile locale

Public employees can no longer serve as local or county councilors, facing a choice between their jobs and council positions. This law, enacted on August 4, aims to align public servant regulations with contractual staff, creating compatibility issues. The Ministry of Development initiated this change to enhance public service career frameworks. However, the law's application to local councilors has been contested, with the Ministry clarifying that existing regulations still apply. The National Integrity Agency supports this interpretation but emphasizes that its stance is not legally binding. The law could significantly impact local governance.
