The Finance Ministry does not agree that the recipients of early retirement or partial early retirement pension also collect a wage, because this would have an extraordinarily high budgetary impact, Finance Minister Dan Vilceanu said Monday after the government meeting.
The Minister added that "when one applies for early retirement this means that one has certain reasons that make it impossible for the applicant to work until the age limit. If one can work until the age limit then one stays in service and works until the age limit, and then receives a pension."
