The meeting involved the ministers of finance, economy and infrastructure, education, culture and research and of agriculture, regional development and environment. Special attention was devoted to the efficiency of expenditure of public funds.
“There is place for improvement when we speak about the efficiency of public expenditure. I ask you to monitor all the costs. I warned you about the habit of many public chiefs to regularly change the laptops and phones. I evidently expect measures to be taken to optimize large investments. The spending of each leu should be justified,” stated Premier Chicu.
