Ombudsman Victor Ciorbea has said that in order to better understand the effects of the amendment to the Tax Code, economic and financial information is also needed, in addition to those provided by petitioners.
Asked about when he intends to make a decision on notifying constitutional challenge of the Tax Code provisions, Ciorbea said "after December 1."
"There is time pressure, but we are trying to be as correct as possible in our job and try to indeed realise what the implications of this 'tax revolution' are. What is clear is that the practical effects will be seen later. It won't be until February when we actually see how many will get higher pay and how many lower pay. Until then, the problem is to be able to feel, to figure out the reality, because, as you can well notice, the approaches are so trenchant on both sides; we find it hard to understand the issue caught in the middle as we are. Of course, we focus on the unconstitutionality aspects, on whether or not the caseload of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) and the Constitutional Court of Romania (CCR) has been breached and others," said Ciorbea.
