Parliament did not ask Filip Government for liability for pension indexation of 5.3% and the Easter allowances worth 600 lei. In the absence of a no-confidence motion, the two projects can be considered adopted and, until it enters into force, remains to be promulgated by the country's president.
On Thursday, the leader of the Democrats, Vlad Plahotniuc, announced that the ruling party had asked the government to take over the projects because, due to the tense political situation, there was a risk of blocking certain social allocations previously promised by PDM.
Thus, the Cabinet of Ministers approved the indexation of pensions on April 1 with 5,3%.
If so far, the increases were calculated on the basis of the inflation recorded in the last year, this time the inflation of the last three years was taken into account.
The second initiative taken by the Government was to grant 600 lei for Easter holidays for retired people, as well as for persons with disabilities with incomes up to two thousand lei.
In total, about 610 thousand Moldovans will benefit of the allowance.
