I-E B. wrote that the PSD government's program omitted, compared to that proposed by USR, PNL, and UDMR, the reforms that, in his opinion, disturbed the system. Among the absent measures, he listed a 13% reduction in the number of parliamentarians, according to the 2021 census, limiting the number of secretaries of state from each ministry to a maximum of three, and banning the accumulation of pensions with salaries in the public sector, about which he said the bill had already passed the Senate. He also mentioned the reform of special pensions and changes in justice: the election of the CSM by all judges and prosecutors, limiting delegations that he considered to be made "with dedication," selecting the Judicial Inspection through a real competition, and measures to prevent the expiration of criminal cases. His list also included civil control over the secret services, banning undercover officers in the press, political parties, and cults, as well as the proposal that half of the state's savings be returned to people through lower labor taxes. I-E B. asked why the reforms that reduce privileges were absent from a program that spoke about an efficient and responsible state. He argued that maintaining an oversized parliament, special pensions, and a justice system in which cases expired would represent the management of the status quo, not reform. #Guvernare #Reforme #PSD (translated)

It will be more difficult to track the flow of money. The President of the European Court of Auditors, Tony Murphy, stated that some essential elements of the Commission's plan to reform the EU's multiannual budget would reduce transparency and hinder the work of those who check whether public funds are spent according to their intended purpose. #BugetUE #Corupție #Transparență (translated)

It's becoming more difficult for us to track the money. In an interview with Politico, the president of the European Court of Auditors, Tony Murphy, criticized the central elements of the reform proposed by Brussels.

Dominic Fritz wrote that there is a criminal case under investigation at the DNA that would involve several employees of the Timișoara City Hall, in connection with an accounting dispute with Colterm from five years ago. He stated that he had not been informed about the case and had no standing in it, but suspected that the accusation would target an alleged abuse of office for obtaining benefits for the Municipality of Timișoara. According to Fritz, no amounts of money had been misappropriated. Fritz reported that, in the winter of 2021/2022, the Romanian Government allocated 67 million lei to the city of Timișoara for the current payments of the heating system, and the City Hall transferred the amount to Colterm. He stated that the Ministry of Finance had communicated in writing that the money could only be transferred to the subsidy account, while Colterm wanted to receive it as an additional transfer, outside the existing contract. Fritz argued that the City Hall acted in accordance with the law and that other city halls that acted similarly did not have problems with the DNA. The mayor stated that the case, if it exists, would be "ridiculous and outrageous" and criticized the DNA for investigating officials who, in his opinion, had done their jobs in good faith. He argued that the fear of criminal cases could lead officials to leave issues unresolved. Fritz also mentioned that since he became mayor, Colterm had received over 1 billion lei from the Timișoara budget in the form of subsidies, and the municipality invested hundreds of millions of lei in rehabilitating the network. He noted the non-payment of certificates in 2020, before he became mayor, Colterm entering insolvency, and the interruption of service for five days in October 2021, adding that he was proud of the solutions found to maintain and save the heating system. #Corupție #Timișoara #DNA (translated)

"We will start a domino effect that, at some point, cannot be stopped. Not only will the economic relaunch be delayed, but the entire economy will be affected. We may witness a national bankruptcy, because we believe that both investors and financial markets will react instantly to such a political decision and, ultimately, they will withdraw their money from Romania," Grindeanu stated. #PSD #alegerianticipate #economiaRomaniei (translated)

Patria Prima argued that a rule signed by ANRE on October 9 would allow energy suppliers, starting in 2027, to dismiss complaints if they believe they contain inappropriate language or do not sufficiently describe the situation. The author stated that the rule does not define these terms and leaves the decision to the discretion of the complained firm. As examples, Patria Prima mentioned clients who contest a much larger bill or do not know how to explain why it seems incorrect to them. In the author's opinion, their complaints could be dismissed without the supplier checking the issue. Patria Prima also said that ANRE applies a similar rule to itself from 2024, which would allow the institution to ignore complaints about suppliers. The author claimed that the provision did not appear in the draft submitted for public debate and was introduced in the final form without ANRE specifying who requested it and why. Patria Prima stated that it had filed a complaint with ANRE and requested the cancellation of the rule, and if it is not withdrawn within 30 days, it will go to court. It also urged the public to share the information. #energie #ANRE #facturi (translated)
