And if we look specifically at point 4, it indicates that: "the data to be published relating to the declarations presented, as well as their modifications, must be the subject of publicity as long as the senior position and the management staff maintain this condition, and they remain published for a minimum period of six months from the date of termination of office".
And how can we respond to this obligation through the transparency portal?
On the portal we usually use the item “Senior positions, management staff and occasional positions” to show the information on the profiles and professional careers of the local political representatives and the holders of the governing bodies of the entity and related bodies, as well as their contact details and their remuneration and also the declarations of activities, assets and interests.
In practice, this is a specific item (differentiated from that of elected officials), which allows us to actively publicize all the information associated with the statements of elected officials and high officials as indicated in the decree. It even has a very simple structure of its own that makes it easy to publish:

If you look at the "Scope" dropdown, this allows you to select between: "Activities", "Heritage" or "Interests", and it is feasible to put a link (for example to an external website), or directly publish a document ( such as the detail of specific statements).
So we understand that with this item you can resolve the active advertising of property declarations, making it easier for us to maintain it for a minimum of 6 months after termination. It is worth noting, however, that after the time considered appropriate (always longer than 6 months), the withdrawal must also be manual.
We hope that with these instructions it will be easy for you to create the new item and keep it updated in order to comply with the provisions of Decree 8/2021, and remember that you have more information about the different resources of the transparency portal at service support portal.
