Dacian Ciolos: Next week I'll invite trade unions for talks on public pay

Prime Minister Dacian Ciolos said Thursday that next week he will start talks with trade unions on public pay with the intent of finding a solution they can accept that would also be feasible in budget and legal terms. 

"Our intention is to find a solution accepted by the trade unions as well and that would also be feasible in budget and legal terms. We have analysed what we could do for some years; we even studied this possibility of an emergency ordinance for one year henceforth where we can commit ourselves with the budget we have and pledge to secure it first of all in order to rectify some dysfunctions in the public pay system; that is our objective and we will continue talks," said Ciolos. 

He added that talks with the trade unions on this issue will start next week. 

"As early as next week, I will invite the trade unions (...) to continue talks and find a solution together," Ciolos said.
