The representatives of the associations and federations of pensioners request Prime Minister Viorica Dancila to allow them to take part in the Government sitting in which the pension draft law will be debated.
"A delegation of pensioners will go to the Government to request a meeting with Prime Minister Viorica Dancila. We want to be received in the Government sitting, where the Pension Law will be discussed. We want to present in the Government the proposals that we have made so far," the president of the National Pensioners Federation "Unirea" Dumitru Cojanu said on Wednesday.
A few hundred pensioners are taking part on Wednesday in an organized meeting by the Unirea Federation in front of the Government, the main claim being raising the pension point to 45 percent of the average gross salary, as of 2021.
Dumitru Cojanu declared on Wednesday for AGERPRES that the PSD (Social Democratic Party) governing program was voted in 2016 by the pensioners because it included raising the pension point to 45 percent of the average gross salary, but now the Government officials have reconsidered.
Representatives of pensioners, from within the country and from Bucharest, from all our branches, have gathered and will keep in coming because they are displeased and disappointed in the way the ruling class are applying their own governing program, in terms of living standards. In 2016, pensioners voted that as of 2021, the pension point to represent 45 percent of the gross average monthly salary, as a share. Unfortunately, under the pretext of transferring the contributions from the employer to the employee, they say that they can no longer apply this provision from the governing program, which is not real. Many of us have voted for PSD but we want PSD to respect us all and to not be trampled," Cojanu said.
He also mentioned that the pensioners' representatives came with proposals for the Government but they were not taken into account.
