Seimas Chancellor Marius Žiūkas informed Parliament leaders almost a month ago that employees of the Seimas members’ personal-political trust have accumulated unused licenses for more than a year.
“This is a great concern for the Seimas Chancellery at the end of the year, when the term ends and all public officials of political-personal confidence are fired,” he said.
According to data from the Seimas Chancellery, 644 thousand LTL were allocated from the state budget to compensate attendees at the end of the period. 473 thousand euros. EUR is intended to offset unused permits.
“And more than 800 thousand must be allocated to pay the accumulated vacations to this day. Euros It would be unbearable for the budget of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs if the employees did not continue to leave during the summer period and accumulated even more licenses until end of period, “said the acting head of the Foreign Ministry.
According to data from the Seimas Chancellery, before the beginning of the summer, all the officials of the Seimas political trust had accumulated and had not used an average of 24 days of vacation, counted as working days.
Most non-vacationers work for Seimas members of the Lithuanian Social Democratic Working Group. The Seimas Chancellery informed BNS that parliamentary assistants have an average of 32 working days of leave here.
The former Speaker of Parliament, now Deputy Conservative Irena Degutienė, stated that this problem arises every time the Seimas expires.
“This problem is outdated, it is not the case for the first term, but the Chancellor has always reminded and distributed the complete list to which member of the Seimas a politically trusted official does not go on vacation,” he said.
I. Degutienė recalled the case when an employee did not take official leave during the four years.
Arvydas Nekrošius, vice president of parliament, said it was difficult for him to imagine how to force an employee to go on vacation.
“It is hard for me to imagine how to force employees to go on vacation under the Labor Code, but I think it is really possible to pay attention. It is possible to give each Seimas member how much they have accumulated, and then the employees will decide if they want to leave or not. “, said.
The President of the Seimas Viktoras Pranckietis asked the Foreign Ministry to provide such information to the members of the Seimas.
After the end of the Seimas spring session in late June, at least some of the attendees are expected to leave in July-August.
Employees of the political trust of the members of the Seimas will lose their jobs at the end of the term of this parliament. They are entitled to severance pay for the average salary of one month.
Each Seimas member is assigned three positions of public servant with political confidence.
