A patra încercare de Guvern: Încep audierile miniștrilor din Guvernul Luca Niculescu

The hearings for ministers proposed by Luca Niculescu, Romania's fourth prime minister designated by President Nicușor Dan, will begin on Monday. These hearings are part of the political crisis initiated on May 5, following a censure motion supported by PSD and AUR. The hearings will take place in specialized committees before a vote scheduled for Tuesday in a joint session of the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate. Niculescu needs 233 votes for approval, with PSD securing 12 out of 18 ministries in his cabinet. His government program includes a budget deficit target of 5.2% of GDP by 2027 and the elimination of the minimum turnover tax starting January 1, 2027. Key provisions also focus on fiscal predictability, targeted social support, and measures to enhance economic competitiveness.
