COMMITTED TO ENHANCING THE CAPACITY ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT AND PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION

Justice and Public Administration. This is the name of government department Basque address. And yet it could be longer if we add the other two Sub-Department which includes: Department of Justice, Public Administration, Legal System and Civil Service. To pick it would require practically a card in widescreen format, but people even identified, mostly, as the Minister of Justice. For economy of words. And because that seems to be at and done, our legs over the media.

This fits a phrase, a familiar metaphor like "I love all my children equally, I have no predilection for one in particular." It's true. But it is that much of our efforts and hopes are focused on dynamic in revitalizing public administration by creating a culture of innovation, collaboration and responsiveness to citizen needs. And what better day than this to insist on it?

On December 20, 2002, the General Assembly of the United Nations, noting the need to strengthen administrative capacity building and public sector management, appointed this June 23 United Nations Day for Public Administration. The decision was part of the importance of improving the administration with a view to achieving the internationally agreed development goals, including those contained in the Millennium Declaration.

And, at this day, it should be noted that only through strong public institutions can provide education, health, culture, security, social cohesion and, in general, access for all to public services quality. And at this juncture, before the crisis caused by speculation in financial markets, it is more necessary than ever renewed commitment to public values.

This crisis has revealed that markets do not solve it all, it is essential to public intervention in the general interest and benefit, especially the most vulnerable. Strong public institutions, full of democratic legitimacy are the best guarantors of solidarity with the people who suffer most directly the consequences of the economic crisis. And are those that ensure access, under equal conditions, to services that allow a decent life.

But public institutions should be also exemplary in their performance, ensuring at all times for the quality and appropriateness of services, and making efficient use of public resources. Recognizing this, the Basque Government is firmly committed to good governance of the public. Proof of this is the government initiative open, based on the principles of transparency, participation and collaboration. Also serve this purpose of good governance public innovation strategy and eGovernment, which aims to transform the public administration to offer citizens quality services through the efficient use of public resources.

Moreover, our government recently unveiled its schedule of plans, all under the umbrella of common strategic objectives: a Euskadi of free citizens, solidarity, sustainable and competitive.

only from a strong public institutions can be achieved these goals. So today I reiterate my commitment to strengthening the administrative capacity and management of the public administration of Euskadi as a factor of national competitiveness and quality of life for citizens.
