Government: turnstiles, yes, but also fight individual interests
I read the edition of Corriere della Sera on Saturday, October 10 2009 (the article is titled 'Awards only to those who produce. Brunetta Way to Reform. This Final dismissal for absentee', signed by Mariolina Iossa), that the reform that takes the name of the minister who promoted it, as the Minister himself said
'is a more comprehensive reform, or positively, to give most of the country: more services to citizens, more schools, more health, more transparency'. And 'facts' but not to cut civil servants and to prod them to work harder and better'. Change 'the government will no longer be a hindrance for the economy of the country, but an element Hitch '. [...] No more additional payment equal to all but divided between the most deserving, or prizes for those who produce more. [...] 'Of course nobody is perfect, even the reform of public administration is perfect. The experience we have and the municipalities will do so immediately. If something is wrong, we are ready to change '.
I think, that after a period of substantial quasi-stagnation on the delicate matter of the civil service and hence the success of the public administrative machinery, good news and a good place to re-start and I think that the willingness of the Minister in this sort of 'administrative experimentalism', Brunetta maintains that occurred when the PA can be improved further and that the government is ready to make changes if something does not go for the right way, deserve to be openly praised. Dismissal for various reasons have been discussed for the public servant's time and also the article cited speaks.
On a positive impact and that the reform will not fail to express just launched it would add much to the conversation and lead very far.
One consequence of this reform could be reasonably foreseeable that appear in the establishment of a climate of 'witch hunt' against the public servant who works to protect the interests of the public administration and not those of particular political career, climate that will create mechanisms in which direction, it can be assumed, will be exercised, especially during an election year, pressure retaliation or action (including the legally bold) for advisors looking unscrupulous, in extreme cases, of media sensationalism, the rest of the time of justice are those that are and are known to those responsible for these actions often (not always find the legal loopholes) remain unpunished. Not everyone, however, know that public offices within the circumstances of which we speak actually occur. The civil servant does not serve interest but purely electoral councilor of the common good and the nation. Moreover, the PA is in significant part consists of operational staff and professionally appropriate. However, one undeniable fact: this general rule is often called into question because it found continuously over many exceptions.
Here, briefly summarized some of the questions that reveal the fear of many that the new reform measures the government is a 'virtual' and not be able to cure all the ills that affects the public sector:
- Public Administration will really be more clear or more (And equally) i 'grandchildren Monsignor's' or those of 'Mr' to occupy part of the public, the most coveted seats?
- continue to be a source of harm and injustice under the opportunists in the public administration whose professional lives to pursue their interest in lending to the exclusive game of political interests with the common good has nothing to do or that, so deleterious to public finance as mortifying capacity and honesty of those who truly works to improve public service, led by trade unions in order to procure new card?
- The PA will be truly efficient or more effective and will continue to be poorly managed by managers and general managers 'without qualities' subservient to the interests of the workshop of a political class does not live up to its responsibilities despite the law entrusts to them the powers and prerogatives ?
no longer enough to merely formal compliance with the law by those who work within the public sector. Everyone, especially, must do its part. The future of our country depends not only on installing 'turnstiles' in public places of work (you can be 'absent' in relation to his duties even while sitting in the office all the time, for that matter ...) but also by the ability of those who govern us to fight, even against their own individual interest, all forms deteriorate management 'thing' public.
