Liquidation of the Inter-ministerial Coordination Centre, with its functions absorbed by the State Chancellery

LATVIA – Cabinet of Ministers

The Cabinet decision of 15 November provides, that from spring 2023, the State Chancellery, in addition to its duties, will take over a number of functions of the Interdepartmental Coordination Centre. This will strengthen the centre of power.  On the other hand, the Interdepartmental Coordination Centre will be abolished as a separate institution.
