By this law draft, the Government asked the Parliament approval to issue ordinances on the financial, social, public administration and interior, transports, health and agriculture fields, inclusively a new budget revision.

The Government revised the 2009 budget after the loan agreement inked with the IMF and the European Commission. Now, it sees a 4% GDP contraction, compared with a 2.5% economic growth in the initial version.

Romania agreed end-March with the International Monetary Fund, the European Union and other international institutions a EUR19.95 billion financial package, supported by a EUR12.95 billion IMF loan under a two-year standby arrangement.
