Reduction of Benefits for State Officials Under New Legislation

March 8, 2025

The Ministry of Finance is planning to reduce the benefits of state officials with the new bill. If approved, pensions will be abolished, and officials will receive only a gratuity, with reductions of up to 82% for members of parliament. The President of the Republic will see an 80% decrease in his benefits. The bill aims to reduce state costs and avoid simultaneous payments of salaries and pensions.
