BC, Tallinn, 10.09.2020.Print version
The Estonian government at its Thursday's meeting endorsed the merger of the Civil Aviation Administration, the Road Administration and the Maritime Administration into a single authority to be called the Mobility Administration, informs LETA/BNS.

The merger still needs to be endorsed by the parliament, spokespeople for the government said.


The merger of the three authorities builds on the underlying principle of the state reform whereby the number of authorities and duplicating are to be reduced and the quality and availability of public services improved. 


The new single institution is intended to serve as a center of excellence across various types of transport that is capable of planning smart mobility solutions and carrying out projects across various types of transport.


In addition, the position of deputy secretary general for maritime affairs would be established at the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications and the marketing activities related to bringing ships under the Estonian flag brought to the ministry.


If the merger is endorsed by the parliament in the fall, the new institution will start work from Jan. 1, 2021.
