How Do Public Expenditures Allocated to the Ministry of Internal Affairs Correlate with Staffing Resources?
Automatically translated summary. The full text is available in Romanian.
An analytical note examines the financial and budgetary resources allocated to Moldova's Ministry of Internal Affairs and its five operational subdivisions: the Police, Border Police, Carabinieri, Civil Protection and Emergency Service, and Migration Inspectorate. It focuses on spending on personnel, using the classic 3P standard of Process, Products and Personnel.
The material has two chapters. The first reviews successive institutional reforms and reorganisations within the internal affairs system and how they usually affect the staff who form the core of the organisation. The second assesses whether the money allocated is sufficient, drawing on comparisons within the system and with analogous systems in countries of the region.
The note builds on the 2015 Functional Analysis Report on the Ministry, prepared by international experts with US Embassy funding. Most of its recommendations remain valid: frequent reorganisations, operational activity and personnel policy still need continuous adjustment and optimisation. The note also stresses functional and inter-institutional interoperability, including in EU accession talks under Chapter 24 on justice, freedom and security. It was produced with the support of the NED Foundation, and the authors thank the Ministry for the data provided.
