Registries request investment of surplus revenues

The STRN union urges the government to reinvest surplus revenues from registries, highlighting the need for over 2,600 additional workers. They argue that the proposed 2027 budget diverts 42.5% of registry income to other agencies, undermining service efficiency and legal security. The union emphasizes the urgency of hiring 191 registry conservators and 2,512 registry officials to address operational chaos and delays affecting citizens and businesses. They note that recent recruitment efforts have been inadequate, leading to a significant shortfall in personnel. The government’s budget proposal is set for final vote on November 24.
