As we know, all three places were occupied by people related to the festival of jazz or other near the mayor.
Regarding the holiday manager from Klaipėda, I asked to investigate whether there is an approved procedure according to which he can telecommute from Vilnius at all times, how his working time is counted and his salary is calculated. I urged that the investigation be carried out not by Klaipėda, but by Vilnius STT. It seems to work, “wrote N. Puteikienė.
