Government and foreign investors to set up a working group, which will meet monthly
Premier Marcel Ciolacu had consultations, on Wednesday with the Council for Foreign Investors, during the meeting agreeing on the setting up of ‘a consolidated working mechanism’ with regulated meetings with participation of the representatives of the government and CIS as well of the ministers of finances and economy.
‘The representatives of the Council for Foreign Investors appreciated both the perspective of the government as regards investment policy as well as the proposal to have monthly reunions of a mixed working group. At the same time, the two parties established that there will be dialogue in this format to ensure support and to understand and correctly put into practice, where it is necessary, the implementation norms of the fiscal measures in the area of turnover tax’ the press release sent by the Press Office of the executive.
Premier Ciolacu invited the Council for Foreign Investors to get into ‘a constant dialogue’ with the government and said he waited for the support and ideas from CIS for investment projects in two strategic areas: food industry and construction materials industry.
The main issues discussed during the consultations were: the package for fiscal-budgetary measures, digitization of the National Agency for Fiscal Management – ANAF and the government vision about foreign investment. The premier said that among his preoccupations and ‘high stake involved’ during his mandate there are the digitization ‘in an accelerated rhythm’ of ANAF and the reorganization of the ministry of finances.
‘I assure you that we are determined to go to the end with our plans for budgetary reform. At the same time, it is necessary and we want to combat fiscal evasion and continue the measures for fiscal equity’ said Marcel Ciolacu.
