Atanas Zafirov: We found common ground on the budget with the participants in the joint management  - 1

Today we made a decision to introduce a rotation of the Speaker of the National Assembly. Tomorrow we will also specify the period during which it will be carried out. This was stated to journalists by Deputy Prime Minister Atanas Zafirov, quoted by Nova TV.

He also commented on the topic of the budget for next year, emphasizing that many talks have been held, the positions of the participants in the joint management are clear, common ground has been found and all deadlines will be met.

„Proposals for changes in taxes and social security must go through the Joint Management Council. We are talking about the Swiss rule, the minimum wage and ensuring that the most vulnerable groups in the country do not suffer. In recent months, we have found money for people in need. In the social sphere, everything is going normally,” said Social Minister Borislav Gutsanov.

He pointed out that he had signed the decision to set the minimum wage at 1,213 leva. He added that discussions are held every day about the budget and, despite the complicated situation, there is no tension - it is simply "things need to be worked out".
