The Regional Secretariat for Education, Science and Technology has revoked the measure that provided for the reimbursement of Bar Association fees for its senior legal technicians.
A financial support measure for senior legal technicians at the Regional Secretariat for Education, Science and Technology has been revoked. The decision is contained in Order No. 340/2026.
This order expressly revokes the previous Order No. 124/2026, of March 6. The revoked order stipulated that the senior legal technicians of the regional secretariat, when acting as judicial representatives, would be reimbursed for the costs of paying Bar Association fees and contributions to the Lawyers' and Solicitors' Provident Fund.
The revocation takes effect on the day after its publication in the Official Journal of the Autonomous Region of Madeira (JORAM). The measure represents a change in the working conditions for lawyers who act in judicial proceedings on behalf of the regional secretariat.
Renata Isabel Pão Rosário has been appointed on an interim basis to head the Public Procurement Division of the Office of the Regional Secretary for Agriculture and Fisheries. The appointment takes effect on 2 October 2026.
Rosa Marina de Castro da Silva has been appointed, on a three-year commission of service, director of the Human Resources Management Department at the Madeira Social Security Institute. The appointment takes effect on 12 October 2026.
The Regional Secretary has changed the arrangements for covering the chief of staff during absences or periods of unavailability. Powers will first pass to deputy Marco Paulo Lira Baptista and, if he is unavailable, to José Marco Cabral de Oliveira.
