We have special pensions of 0.85% of GDP. Well, only some of them are called special pensions. Some of them are called “retirement pensions”, but I think we can still call them “free pensions” or “free contributions”, the director of the BNR Stability Office, Eugene Redulescu, said on Wednesday during a specialist conference

“We don’t call them special pensions, but it’s that they don’t meet any of the three criteria that we have, all other mortals. I mean the insurance experience, the retirement age and the pension calculation method,” said Redulescu.

According to him, if this year we are talking about 0.85% of GDP, which are special pensions, then in 2-3 years we can reach 1.5%, and then it will be increasingly difficult to show that these pensions are budget expenses. which is not only unacceptable, but also unbearable, unstable.

We will remind you that at the end of last year the Government adopted the law on reforming special pensions.

Also the head of the High Court of Cassation and Justice, Corina Korbu, stated that discussions about the reform of special pensions gave rise to “collective emotions” in the judicial system, which led to the departure of many experienced magistrates, stressing that this issue should be approached “with maximum responsibility”.
