Romania’s new Government will apply the laws adopted by the Parliament on salaries and pensions, but will analyze again the social security draft budget for the next year.

The Government will thus respect the measure adopted by the Parliament last week, which increases by 10% all the wages in the public sector, reports local Profit.ro.

On Sunday, the appointed Prime Minister Dacian Ciolos said that the new Government would apply the 10% increase only if the budget allowed such a measure.

At the end of last week, Finance Minister Eugen Teodorovici presented Dacian Ciolos a budget draft for the next year which provides a budget deficit of 3% of the GDP and includes the 10% increase of public sector wages.

Social Democrats want to increase salaries for all public employees in Romania by 10%.

Deputies vote for 10% wage increase for all state employees in Romania.
