One day after facing unionists’s street protests, Romanian PM Emil Boc talked about measures that would fight economic crisis.
Still a ‘draft’, the Government’s anti-crisis agenda counts several strategies.
Mr Boc said that the investment fund for boosting economy would be different from the state budget.
He mentioned other measures as well: Companies would first have to pay the principal of an overdue debt to the state, and they would receive some VAT compensation:
‘We will allow payment of the principal to be made first, instead of the interest rates and penalties, when repaying debt to the fiscal authorities.’
The national investment fund would have to include minority stakes owned by the state in various companies.
