The updated rules clarify how staff positions can be reallocated among government bodies:
- Redistribution of vacant positions is allowed only with government approval.
- Exceptions include emergencies, the creation of new bodies, changes in administrative-territorial structures, and Presidential orders.
- Certain entities, such as the Presidential Administration, the Government Apparatus, and organizations with fewer than 100 employees, are exempt from staff redistribution.
The amendments take effect immediately upon the signing of the decree.
