The Prime Minister also pointed out that the reforms implemented in the field of public administration have produced good results, and expressed her gratitude for the assistance of the EU and the Member States in supporting the establishment of the National Public Administration Academy, which should play a key role in creating more qualified staff and more efficient and transparent work of public administration.
