A meeting of the Interior Sector Development Council was held at the Ministry of the Interior last week, in which the management and representatives of the Ministry of the Interior and the Interior Services discussed structural reforms in the home affairs sector to improve and modernize the services provided to the society and to improve the strategic planning of the sector for the coming years.
Minister of the Interior Marija Golubeva emphasizes: The management of the Ministry of the Interior and institutions has invested a lot of work in a meaningful and high-quality improvement of internal work processes so that the society receives more and more high-quality and modern services. Work is also underway on the new Home Affairs Strategy 2023-2027. I believe that implementing this strategy will help build a safer country and increase public satisfaction with the work of our industry.”
At the meeting, SIA “Ernst & Young Baltic” presented the management of the Ministry and services with the Future Planning Model for the Home Affairs Sector developed within the framework of the Structural Reform Support Programme project “Improving the Efficiency of the Interior Sector Institutions in Latvia” Phase 3 (SRSP-3).
The aim of the project is to create a sustainable strategic planning and results-oriented organizational management system for the home affairs sector, based on the internationally recognized S.M.A.R.T. method. The project was launched in the summer of 2020.
SRSP-3 is implemented by the Ministry of the Interior in cooperation with SIA Ernst & Young Baltic, by engaging strategic planning and home affairs experts from the Netherlands, Austria, Estonia, Lithuania and Sweden.
During the meeting, the next steps in the development of the target map and the Interior Sector Strategy for 2023-2027 were also determined.
* SRSP-3 is funded by the European Commission's Directorate-General for Structural Reform Support (DG REFORM). The aim of the European Commission's Directorate-General for Structural Reform Support is to help the countries of the European Union countries build more effective institutions and stronger governance systems in order to strengthen their capacity to design and implement policies that promote job creation and sustainable growth.
