The deputies admitted an objection raised by President Traian Basescu to the Senate’s decision to reject the emergency Ordinance 58/2008 that annuls the 75% salary increase for personnel in the ministries of Agriculture and Economy who handle European funds.
Basescu said Ordinance 58/2008 should be annulled because it provisions salary raises only for part of the employees who work with European funds, thus discriminating against the other categories of employees.
The Chamber of Deputies is decisional chamber in the matter.
