The Regional Government of Madeira, through the Regional Secretariat for Tourism, Environment and Culture, has proceeded with the establishment of petty cash funds to ensure speed in the payment of unavoidable and urgent expenses. The measure aims to circumvent the slowness of standard accounting processing in situations that require immediate payments, namely through debit cards.
In all cases, the responsibility for managing the funds was assigned to specialist coordinator Ana Paula Pontes de Abreu Rodrigues, with substitution ensured by senior technician Tânia Gonçalves Nunes in case of impediment.
The Regional Government has appointed new leadership in Health and Commerce, and renewed a position in Agriculture.
Dr. Rita Brazao de Freitas has been appointed as the Director of Planning, Methodology, Studies and Dissemination Services at DREM.
The local authority has submitted the draft regulation for Traditional Fairs and the Participatory Budget Regulation for public consultation.
