The National Liberal Party (PNL) is asking the Government to eliminate from the governance programme "the fiscal-budget aberrations" and to come up before Parliament to rectify the programme, PNL national leader Ludovic Orban said on Monday.
"We believe the business turnover tax, the solidarity tax, the tax on households renamed the tax on aggregate income, the over-taxation of products that pose health risks, banning two-time insolvent people from doing business, levying social security contributions for part-time workers against the minimum wage, the over-taxation on energy and communications as well as a separate VAT account - are all measures against the business environment. We are asking the government to give up these measures. Moreover, we are asking them to come up before Parliament and clear the governance programme of the fiscal-budget aberrations they introduced over night without announcing they plan to modify the governance programme, (...) some measures seriously affecting the business environment and risking to jeopardise the Romanian economy," Orban said after a meeting of the PNL Executive Bureau, which took place at the Parliament House.
