Law 186 reduces the number of central State agencies from 27 to 21
The regulation reorganizes the Central Administration and sets up to one year to complete administrative changes and redistribute personnel and resources.
Law 186 establishes a new organization for the Central State Administration and reduces the number of central agencies from 27 to 21. The regulation was published in the Ordinary Official Gazette number 90, corresponding to November 2, and will come into force on November 9. The legal text addresses both the structure of the entities and the redistribution of responsibilities within the state administrative apparatus.
With the reorganization, six central bodies will no longer be part of the previous structure. The change also contemplates grouping competencies that until now operated separately, so that the reform is not limited to reducing the number of entities. Law 186, called "On the Organization of the Central State Administration", provides the legal framework to modify this organization and order the planned transformations.
The implementation includes administrative changes and the redistribution of personnel, finances and resources. The regulations establish a maximum period of one year to complete these processes, so the entry into force and the execution of the adjustments have different dates: the law will come into force on November 9, while the modifications may be developed during the period foreseen for its implementation.
This period covers the administrative reorganization associated with the new structure, including the transfer of personnel and resources between the entities involved. The grouping of competencies and the reduction of agencies are part of the same process of reorganization of the Central Administration. The regulation thus establishes a period to carry out the changes, instead of concentrating the entire transition on the date of entry into force.
The sequence set by the law begins with its publication on November 2 and continues with its entry into force on November 9. From then on, the administrative process will have up to a year to complete the planned adjustments. The measure modifies the composition of the central agencies and provides for the reorganization of functions and resources within the Central State Administration.
