According to him, the Government will continue to make efforts in supporting national producers, but it will not tolerate arrears in the Social Fund. Premier asked for a plan of actions from the CNASS leadership and social partners – Trade Unions and Patronages – to diminish the black economy and “salary in the envelope”. “There are branches where such problems still persist”, said Tarlev, mentioning first of all the trade, and constructions as well.
