Romanian Democrat Liberals To Vote For Draft 2010 State Budget

The Romanian Democratic Liberal Party (PDL) parliamentary groups will vote for the 2010 state budget, PDL deputy Nicolae Bud said Monday, adding that the draft is not perfect, but is in accordance with the International Monetary Fund and European Commission loan agreement.

„We are about to take an essential decision. We will provide Romania with the 2010 budget by January 14, or the two loan tranches will be delayed,” Nicolae Bud said.

Bud said he knows the draft budget is not perfect. „Maybe the EUR20 billion is lower than the country’s needs, but we need it to cover deficits and investments,” the democrat liberal deputy said. He criticized the members of the former liberal government for „boasting about a healthy economy while avoiding to mention the high deficit they left behind.”

Bud warned that budget revenue is „facing serious problems,” on account of high tax evasion in 2009.
