Full Fetranscesc Note

“An accusation process is not positive, in any way, for public management, in any area. Having Governor Carlos Moisés acquitted of the process for which he was responsible for allegedly committing a crime of responsibility by granting salary adjustments to state prosecutors means that Justice has been served against the head of the Executive Power of Santa Catarina, elected by majority vote.

Fetrancesc understands that the governor accumulated errors, but also added many successes. If, on the one hand, there was a lack of articulation in the relationship with the Legislative Power and with the entities of the productive sector, on the other hand Moisés was responsible for various management actions, going from a deficit of R $ 1.2 billion in 2018 to R $ 161 million in surplus in 2019, in addition to articulations, markedly through its secretariat, for sustainable socioeconomic development, public security and, especially in 2020, the health structure. In addition, the State is beginning to resume road infrastructure works and is updated, which gives peace of mind to all citizens.

These works continued throughout the period in which the Lieutenant Governor, Daniela Reinehr was there, including the maintenance of a large part of the secretariat.

Although the accusation process is disastrous for public management, it will serve as learning for all public administrators of the State and the Country. In this way, Fetrancesc reinforces that it has always supported and will continue to support the Government of Santa Catarina, as well as believes in its recovery. moment of a more political than legal process “.
