Tocantins 247 - A proponent of public service examinations, councilman Professor Junior Geo (PROS) recalled the investigations initiated last week by the Public Prosecutor's Office (MP-TO). Also questioned were the excessive number of appointed positions, the alleged absence of public service examinations for the General Staff of the Executive Branch, the Health and Education Secretariats of the Municipality of Palmas, and the alleged hiring of employees to work under temporary contracts. "Appointed positions and temporary contracts are concerns I have as a professor and overseer of the executive branch's work," explained the councilman.

During the ordinary session on August 4th, the parliamentarian requested an extension of the validity of the public service examination for the general staff of the Palmas City Hall. He justified his request by explaining that the examination's validity period would end on August 8th, 2016. "I requested the extension of the last public service examination held for the general staff of the municipality of Palmas precisely because it was impossible to hold a new examination this year and because there were still people waiting on the reserve list and the positions were being filled by contracts," said the congressman.

Surveys

The Public Prosecutor's Office of Tocantins (MPE-TO) has opened a series of investigations against the Municipality of Palmas. The details were published in the Official Gazette on December 2nd.
