The newly organized structure of Vilnius Municipality is to be reorganized "according to knowledge and competence", and not according to the territory the way it used to be until now. According to Verslo Zinios, out of 960 people only about 660 will remain in the municipality, leaving 50 more for reserve. Functions will be purified and concentrated in such a way that everyone will know which specialist is responsible for what, informs ELTA/LETA.
According to Vilnius Mayor Vilius Navickas, after the reorganization the bureaucracy apparatus will shrink about 30%, while expenditures will go down even more.
