DEPARTMENT AND CABINET ACTIVITY

Department of State (DOS)

Achievements in January:
- initiated presidential elections
- implemented new party policies
- business as usual :>

Goals for February:
not quite sure with the presidential elections in progress lots of potential though!

Approximate Funds Spent:
$105,500


Department of Construction & Transport (DCT)

Achievements in January:
Over my 3 weeks of tenure, we have hired 7 new employees, finished and began many construction projects like Light Rail, Project Condense, Reveille Heights improvements and so on. We have also increased Building Inspector pay and made the plot auctioning process easier and more rewarding.

Department of Health (DOH)

Achievements in January:
We have worked closely with Staff to report and fix bugs regarding Medicare and whatnot. I have submitted the Pharmacy&Pharmacists update to Staff and it's under review.

Goals for February:
I would say we can expect the Pharmacists job update and the much needed revamp, but it is not dependent on me now. The submission was made to Staff and I can only hope that the next Secretary will continue my legacy.

Approximate Funds Spent:
~$36000

Our spending was much lower than it normally would be due to serious bugs with the plugin which resulted in low number of patients and other problems.
This is my last SoTC report this term.
Thank you, Redmont, for trusting me to be your Health Secretary.
Stay healthy.

Department of Commerce (DOC)

Department of the Interior (DOI)

Achievements in January:
The DOI has released a series of tenders and welcomed three new supply officers to the team. Meanwhile, winterwolf has introduced a new feature allowing players to deposit their tenders at any time. On the ranger side, Human contributed to updating the shop at the zoo with a selection of Valentine's Day-themed items. McBrittle also coordinated a successful Ranger Day event, where a dedicated group of rangers worked together to repair and improve the terrain in the wild. Six new rangers have joined the DOI as well.

Goals for February:
The DOI plans to release more tenders, and recruit more supply officers. In addition, the DOI intends to focus on enhancing both the shelter and zoo. Looking ahead, the DOI wishes to establish a Parrot Observatory at the Animal Shelter, and hopefully boost parrot adoptions.

Approximate Funds Spent:
$89,492
