About Delphi Paulius Saudargas, vice president of Seimas and representative of the Lithuanian Christian National-Democratic Union (TS-LKD) faction.
He argued that now the repair function does not really justify its existence.
“The model is such that the transport function for the members of the Seimas or other officials remains, all the drivers remain, fuel too. Here we are talking about a car company that repaired cars under the jurisdiction of the Seimas, of which there are about 30. “They repaired them on their own, although they had service contracts, but they did not use them much to justify their existence,” said the politician .
Saudarg said the analysis had shown that very few official repairs, about two a day, had been carried out with a dozen foremen.
“There is a big complex of car services out there. This compares to the volume of work in the market, but here the volumes were very small: two repairs per day, including tire changes or the like. And this seems to be a use. inefficient of public funds. ” Delphi explained the parliamentarian.
The interlocutor assured that the cars of the members of the Seimas, signers and employees of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which could also be personal, were being repaired.
“Now we will all go out to the market and that repair function will be bought in the market. Because we have seen that the garage works inefficiently for several years ”, said the vice president of Seimas P. Saudargas.
He said the garage employs a total of 30 to 40 stalls. And the repair staff will be turned away.
The letter, which analyzes the possibilities of optimizing the activities of the Transportation Division of the Department of Administration of Administration of the Chancellery of the Seimas, which was carried out during the last legislature of the Seimas, indicates that the Transportation Division employs 16 employees in the repair and maintenance of official automobiles. Although on average only 1.3 maintenance or repair jobs are carried out on official cars of the Seimas Chancellery per business day.
For example, changes or additions to lubricants and other fluids, tire changes or repairs, body work, suspension, engine, transmission repair work).
Likewise, on average, 1.3 maintenance or repair jobs are carried out per day for other natural and legal persons.

And the maintenance costs of the Department of Transportation are about 1 million. per year, the document states. As only a part of the staff and the functions they perform is being abandoned, it is not yet clear exactly how much can be saved in the budget. The analysis carried out last year establishes that after the optimization of this chapter, the funds from the state budget could “be used for the purchase of new official cars (for example, for electric cars, installation of electric charging stations near the Seimas), improvement of the working conditions of Members and employees of the Seimas or other necessary needs “.
According to the vice president of Seimas P. Saudargas, the abandonment of these employees and the services provided by them will save the budget and will allocate these funds to other areas.
“The budget is definitely not rubber for the Seimas. And an effective authorization is needed”, Delphi the parliamentarian spoke.
“It just came to our knowledge then. The analysis shows the numbers that do not work. We also give a certain privilege, which, I do not know if it is absolutely necessary, for the members of the Seimas, signatories, employees of the Chancellery, as if it were more cheap to repair. Is it really necessary? “asked P. Saudargas.
According to the politician, state fees were set for the services rendered, that is, they work at cost.
The Chancellor of the Seimas Modestas Gelbūdas, who presented this issue at the Board meeting on Wednesday, stated that we plan to abandon these services as of September this year.
“Denial of maintenance and repair services for all entities. That means that we would give up all repair services and buy them on the market, ”said the Chancellor of Seimas.
Until now, no one is giving up buildings, not only Seimas cars are built in them, but also other state institutions. There will still be a car wash there.
Promise to solve another problem
Delphi recalls that the president of the Seimas, Viktorija Čmilytė-Nielsen, promised that this Seimas would solve another problem: the fate of the Seimas hotel.
“We have discussed the possible issue of the sale of the Seimas hotel in the Seimas Board and, in principle, we have such a consensus that it should be taken. Naturally, to solve it, several steps are needed: the Seimas will have to decide, the Statute of the Seimas must be changed, but the first steps in that direction have been taken and I believe that we will solve this problem in this period. ”Said V. Čmilytė-Nielsen in February this year.
In mid-December, the Seimas Board decided to oblige the Seimas Chancellery to begin managing the managed property: the building located on Gedimino Avenue. 60 – evaluation procedure.
