President criticizes useless meetings and bureaucracy in government organizations

The President also noted the need to optimize the number of employees in government bodies by introducing digital technologies in practice.

“The government will prepare draft documents within two months to reduce the number of departments that repeat each other’s functions. Public administration staff will be cut by 15 percent. Deputies at places have no idea what to be busy with, just wasting time. Around 60 people are recruited in an old district system left from the USSR period. Why do they need 60 people?” Mirziyoyev noted.
