The provision that prohibited the cumulative pension to the state, removed from the second package of fiscal measures to reduce the deficit

The provision regarding the prohibition of the cumulative pension to the state was removed from the second package of fiscal measures to reduce the deficit, following the coalition discussions, political sources said.

Political sources say that the leaders of the coalition have given up the measure of the prohibition of the cumulative pension, to the state, given that this provision would have been hit in areas already affected by fiscal measures, education and health. In addition, there is a decision of the Constitutional Court, from November 2023, by which the law prohibiting the budget to accumulate the salary with the pension was declared unconstitutional, writes News.
A new session of the Coalition is to take place on Tuesday, from 5 pm, to complete the measures in the second package, on the agenda being the reform of the Local Together, a topic where PSD has amendments.
The interim president of the PSD, Sorin Grindeanu stated before the Coalition meeting that there is already an agreement on the proposals related to health, SGG and the Ministry of Justice, where the ministers are from the PSD, but the fiscal measures and those concerning the administration are to be discussed.
Grindeanu said that a Ministry of Development cannot help but take into account the proposals that come from the Municipal Association, UNCJR, from all the town halls in the country.
In mid -August, the Government put into public debate an emergency ordinance project that prohibits the cumulation of the pension with the salary for all categories of employees in public institutions and in the state companies or kings.
According to the document, if there is an retirement decision, and the employee in question decides to stay in the workplace, then the right to retirement is suspended until he comes out of his activity. Thus, he will not receive a pension at the same time as the salary. The draft law stipulates that employees with retirement decision can extend their activity until the age of 70.
