On 3 November, the Government at an extraordinary meeting reduced the boundary number of employees of rayon state administrations (RSA).

The reason is that, as a result of the decentralisation reform, the RSA’s functions are actively transferred to amalgamated hromadas.

The Government's decision will allow to optimise the work of such rayon state administrations and reduce the expenditures of budget funds that can be directed to the development of hromadas in the respective territories.
