Railway companies under control

Railway trade unions, dissatisfied with the way companies use the funds they benefit from, on Monday requested Premier Mugur Isarescu to check up the way revenues/expenditures budgets are observed, as well as the raw material procurement system and the way foreign credits are being used.

Government spokesperson Gabriela Vranceanu-Firea confirmed, following the Premier’s meeting with trade union representatives, that the analysis of revenues/expenditures budgets revealed “faulty management” and “certain imbalances.”

“Trade unions signalled defaults within the raw material procurement system and asked that an analysis should be performed by the Control Department within the Government,” Firea specified.

She added that the Transports Ministry’s restructuring would be analysed, foreign credits contracted by this ministry would be checked up and progress registered in the execution of some infrastructure projects would be assessed.
