Carlo did not provide detailed explanations; the specific proposal still needs to be drafted by Pri Minister Prim himself.
The specific regulations are quite simple: various assessnts are conducted for governnt officials at all levels according to their different duties.
Those who are qualified accumulate political achievents, and upon eting certain achievents, they et the conditions for promotion. Conversely, if their performance is poor, they must be prepared for demotion or even direct dismissal.
However, doing so will definitely offend a large number of officials, as they are well settled in their current positions and may not be willing to passively move.
Therefore, it’s best for Pri Minister Prim to submit and promulgate such a proposal; Carlo does not intend to get too involved.
Pri Minister Prim does not oppose this either. Such a thod can effectively improve administrative efficiency among officials and serve as a ans of monitoring them.
Although it will offend so diocre, unproductive officials, these people are utterly detrintal to the Spanish Governnt and should be removed sooner rather than later.
Offending people is not a big deal for Pri Minister Prim. The reform has already angered a number of forces; what’s one more?
Because he quite approves of the performance evaluation system proposed by Carlo, within a few days, Pri Minister Prim personally submitted a draft of the "Proposal for Evaluating Officials’ Performance" to parliant.
He personally submitted it because of the importance attached to consolidating the officialdom.
Only with Pri Minister Prim personally submitting such a proposal can the officials see its importance, thus actively achieving the result of consolidating the officialdom.
If anyone still thinks Pri Minister Prim is just posturing, when the knife of integrity and honesty is at their throat, it won’t be his call anymore.
In this draft proposal, Pri Minister Prim divided the Spanish Governnt into three levels: national governnt, regional governnt, and municipal governnt, all included within the scope of performance evaluation.
Officials at all three governnt levels who perform excellently can be specially promoted to higher-level governnts. Those whose performance is unsatisfactory are lightly punished by demotion, severely by direct dismissal.
Considering this evaluation proposal involves a large number of officials, the evaluation content won’t be excessively stringent.
Basically, as long as officials complete tasks within their scope of duties, they can receive a pass or above rating. If they achieve certain political accomplishnts, they will receive an excellent rating in preparation for promotion.
As for those officials who fail even in tasks within their duty scope, leaving them in their positions will only cause adverse effects on the country.
For current Spanish officials, there are many areas where they can add to their achievents. For example, promoting local economic and industrial developnt, lowering illiteracy rates, promoting literacy education, promoting ethnic integration, and even population developnt, all can increase their achievents.
As long as there is a slight contribution, reaching a pass level is not difficult.
The main purpose of doing this is to eliminate corrupt and incompetent officials. As long as they have a little ability, they shouldn’t fail to achieve any accomplishnts.
According to the Spanish constitution, parliant has the power to appoint and dismiss officials at all governnt levels. So as long as the proposal is passed by parliant, the performance evaluation for the three levels of governnt can be smoothly implented.
This proposal caused an uproar in parliant, even making so legislators who originally supported Pri Minister Prim hesitate.
This evaluation system is unprecedented and will break the system of aristocratic preference and seniority that has long been maintained in the Spanish officialdom.
Many aristocrats could easily obtain quite good official positions by virtue of their bloodline, and seasoned officials could compete for high positions based on seniority.
However, those who are truly capable rarely achieve a title and official position through their own efforts, and the path for commoners besides emigrating seems to be only through revolution to gain their identity and status like Pri Minister Prim.
The new performance evaluation system for officials completely breaks the original bureaucratic system of Spain, shifting from valuing bloodlines and prestige to valuing individual ability.
From a national perspective, this is certainly a step forward. Only when these officials try their best to create achievents can Spain’s economy and industry quickly advance through their efforts.
If officials from various regions and cities themselves are not enthusiastic about the growth of the economy and industry, how can Spain’s comprehensive national strength progress swiftly?
By linking the progress of the national economy and industry, including so decrees promulgated by the Cabinet Governnt, to the achievents of these officials, even if not for national developnt, they will still strive for their personal interests, political achievents, and higher official positions.
Doing things passively versus actively makes a clear difference, and for the current Spain, it urgently needs so more passionate and dynamic young officials to change the officialdom’s landscape.
"Pri Minister, isn’t your proposal too radical?" a legislator in parliant raised objections, clearly dissatisfied with the content of Pri Minister Prim’s proposal: "
This completely breaks the previous bureaucratic system of Spain. Can I think of it as causing a severe impact on the existing bureaucratic system of Spain and making many officials lose their original jobs?"
