“I have not slept all night, I am pregnant and I think about what two money I live in. I had 3 jobs to reach the maximum amount. Why was the law targeting the mothers was not revised?”, asked a Digi 24 viewer on the prime minister, referring to the taxation of the child-raising allowances by 10%.
Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan claims that he wanted to keep all the facilities granted so far, but the country’s budgetary situation no longer allows it. In addition, says the prime minister, when we judge the facilities for mothers in Romania, we must judge compared to other states. “In other countries, the duration of leave is one year and the allowance is 65% of the profit. That’s for a country like Germany ”says the head of the government.
“Not everything was revised, but only a few punctual aspects, such as the didactic norm or the derogations. There there were some changes. In the rest, it did not change much from what was initially announced. As for the problem raised by the listeners, continue with an aforementioned answer. It would have been desirable to be able to maintain all the exceptions, possible.
What should we do in the next period? To reduce waste everywhere it is possible. Where we had facilities granted, we must analyze whether they can be supported, if they are justified ”, said Ilie Bolojan, at Digi 24.
