“The PNL proposals to support the middle class have been accepted by the European Commission. The single rate, the best for Romania, remains in force in 2025, as the National Liberal Party claimed, it will not be a progressive tax, as they want Marcel Ciolacu and the Social Democratic Party. Another liberal proposal: the increase in the staggered contribution rate from 4.75% to 6% in Pension Pillar 2. I started the increase in the contribution rate during my mandate as prime minister. The National Liberal Party remains the guarantor of Pillar 2 so that Romanians have more money for retirement“, stated Nicolae Ciucă in a video post on Facebook.
According to Ciucă, the European Commission also supports the liberal approach of increasing the bonus for good payers from 3% to 5%.
“There are 560,000 companies in Romania that pay their taxes on time. It’s time to show respect for entrepreneurs. PNL remains the main ally of the middle class, of Romanians who work and have initiative”transmitted Nicolae Ciucă.
