Decree No. 775/1993

Approve the organizational structure of the National Council for Children and the Family for the year 1993.

VISTO Law 23,696 on State Reform, the Administrative Reform Programme implemented by Decree No. 2476 of 28 November 1990, and Decree No. 1606/90, and

CONSIDERING:

That Decree 1606/90 established the NATIONAL COUNCIL of the LESSOR and the FAMILY, which is responsible for the functions of the National State in the area of promotion and comprehensive protection of the minority and the family, with technical autonomy and the degree of administrative deconcentration provided by the decree.

That by Decree No. 1811 of 1 September 1980, the structure of the areas was approved, which by Decree No. 1606 of 22 August 1990 constitute the NATIONAL COUNCIL of the LESSOR AND FAMILY, in replacement of the former SECRETARIAT for HUMAN DEVELOPMENT and FAMILY, deleted by Decree No. 435/90.

That by Decree No. 667 of 15 April 1991, as amended by Decree No. 1667 of 23 August 1991, the National Directorates and other directorates that are part of the NATIONAL COUNCIL of the LESSOR AND FAMILY and the payroll of establishments and Directions of an assistance nature were determined in Annex Id.

That by article 13 of Decree No. 1606/90, the NATIONAL COUNCIL OF THE LESSOR AND FAMILY must adapt its structure on the basis of transformations of existing charges, in periods that must be considered extended by the dictation of successive decrees.

That Decree No. 2053/92 creates the SECRETARIAT OF THE THIRD EDAD, so it is appropriate to adapt the structure of the NATIONAL COUNCIL of the LESSOR AND FAMILY to the existence of the new organism.

That Decrees No. 667/91 and No. 1667/91, issued in respect of the central areas -UNITY COUNCIL AND SPECIALIZED FORMATION - did not set the structures of care areas, with adaptation to the new technical programmes and modalities of action in the field of minors and persons with disabilities, which is carried out in an integral way by the present.

That the proposed structure, following modern criteria, increases the level of professional and technical intervention, anticipating the increase of programs in the final decade of the century.

Given the technical autonomy of the agency, which is reflected in the specificity of the tasks of each of the departments of the dependent National Directorates, it is necessary to exempt the NATIONAL COUNCIL from the LESSOR and the FAMILY from the provisions of Decree 1482/90.

That in order to provide the NATIONAL COUNCIL with the sufficient dynamics, training and organization of human resources, for the tasks of a supportive nature that they carry out, it is advisable to approve the endowment for the 1993 Exercise of the Institutes and Programs dependent on National Directions; at the same time authorizing the competent authority to carry out the relevant redeployments according to the needs of repartition.

That the EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE FOR AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE REFORM has taken the intervention that is within its purview.

That this act is given in the exercise of the powers conferred by article 86 (1) of the National Constitution.

Therefore,
