Šimonytė had a different idea
It is true that in November, Prime Minister Ingrida Šimonytė declared that these positions should not be filled by the Minister of Health, but by the Prime Minister.
“The goal is that when the new government takes office, the prime minister should take over the management of this situation. Because now one of the problems is that there are two centers of power: the Minister of Health and the Prime Minister.
Sometimes one of them is a good police officer, the other is bad, sometimes the different information comes from two sources ”, said I. Šimonytė.
According to her, the lack of communication between managers and the presentation of a different situation does not generate trust in society and this type of situation should be avoided in general.
“The center must be clear, the highest. And the subject centers can be configured in different ways. And there can be an advisory group of experts nearby,” considered I. Šimonytė.
