Grupul parlamentar PACE - Întâi România: „Înainte de a tăia bursele sociale în vacanță, Guvernul să reducă subvențiile partidelor”

The PACE parliamentary group urges the government to reconsider cutting social scholarships for vulnerable students during summer, suggesting instead to reduce political party subsidies. They emphasize that support for struggling children should take precedence over funding for political parties. The total subsidies for parties from January to August 2026 amounted to over 122 million lei, with significant monthly distributions. The group argues that if budget cuts are necessary, they should start with political party funding rather than affecting vulnerable students. They call for a public assessment of the budgetary impact of the proposed scholarship cuts and a review of future party subsidies.
