Local authorities can settle their debts to companies through a new mechanism of 2 billion lei initiated by the Ministry of Finance. Applications must be submitted by November 25. The process involves offsetting municipal debts against the companies' tax liabilities, allowing both parties to resolve their financial issues simultaneously. Eligible debts include overdue payments for goods and services, heating costs, and public transport compensations. The Ministry will distribute funds based on the order of applications received until the budget is exhausted. This initiative aims to alleviate the burden of delayed payments, particularly at the local level, where most outstanding debts are recorded.
