The Minister of Labor, Petre Florin Manole, accuses Dragoș Pîslaru of reporting deceased individuals as beneficiaries of deinstitutionalization to the European Commission. Investigations revealed 478 non-compliant cases, risking Romania's access to PNRR funds. Manole criticized the falsification of data and stated that the actual number of deinstitutionalized individuals is 3,498, not 3,976 as previously reported. He emphasized that errors were flagged in August, yet incorrect data was submitted to the European Commission. The Minister insists on transparency and will not endorse misleading figures.
