As of Monday evening, 10 applications were received via the public competitive process aimed at hiring a new Director-General of the Health Board (Terviseamet), Diana Lorents, comms advisor at the government office, says.
Several candidates have expressed interest in taking up the position of Health Board director general after previous director Üllar Lanno resigned last September, Minister of Health and Labor Tanel Kiik (Center) told ERR.
A committee on top management selection at the Government Office has announced that the contest to find a new director for the Health Board has failed. The process began in September.
Since only two applications were made for the position of Director-General of the Health Board, the Government Office decided to extend the application deadline by two weeks.
Nii tervise- ja tööminister Tanel Kiik kui terviseameti juht Üllar Lanno peaksid mõistma, mida tähendab vastavalt poliitiline ja institutsionaalne vastutus ja selle ka võtma külmlao juhtumi valguses, leidsid Raadio 2 saate "Olukorrast riigis" juhid, ajakirjanikud Hindrek Riikoja ja Indrek Lepik.
