Secretary General of the Government Alexei Buzu and the Deputy Secretary General Alexandru Iacub today held discussions with members of the European Confederation of Intermediate Local Authorities (CEPLI). The talks focused on the reform of local public administration in Moldova, strengthening administrative capacities and making use of European experience in this field.

CEPLI representatives referred to the implementation of local public administration reform in more European states and the role of local authorities in communities’ development. The sides also discussed opportunities for cooperation between the State Chancellery, the Association of District Councils of Moldova and CEPLI.
