The new public salary law may be adopted in 2027, with implementation expected the following year. Minister Florin Manole emphasized the need for budgetary clarity before decisions on pensions and social benefits can be made. The government is focusing on budget rectification and preparing the 2027 budget, which will influence future measures. Estimated public salary expenditures are projected at 166 billion lei for 2026 and 174 billion lei for 2027, but these figures are not commitments for increases. Pension indexing is planned to resume in 2027, prioritizing low-income retirees while adhering to fiscal strategies. Specific percentages for salary increases and pension indexing remain unspecified, contingent on future budgetary decisions.
