The Madeiran executive has authorized the creation of petty cash funds for the management of current and urgent expenses in three regional directorates of the Regional Secretariat for Tourism, Environment and Culture.
The Regional Government of Madeira, through the Regional Secretariat for Tourism, Environment and Culture, has proceeded with the establishment of petty cash funds to ensure speed in the payment of unavoidable and urgent expenses. The measure aims to circumvent the slowness of standard accounting processing in situations that require immediate payments, namely through debit cards.
In all cases, the responsibility for managing the funds was assigned to specialist coordinator Ana Paula Pontes de Abreu Rodrigues, with substitution ensured by senior technician Tânia Gonçalves Nunes in case of impediment.
Pedro Gonçalves de Barros has been appointed head of the Territorial Monitoring and Landscape Division of the Regional Directorate for Territorial Planning. The one-year appointment takes effect on 1 October 2026.
The Region has authorised €263,898.6 in funding over six financial years for the sublease of Quinta Vila Passos in Funchal, which will house a public service. The expenditure will be covered by the budget of the Institute for Forests and Nature Conservation.
An amendment to the collective irrigation investment scheme requires beneficiaries to settle outstanding repayments of European funds or provide a guarantee. The order also sets a criterion concerning criminal convictions involving EAFRD and EAGF funds.
