The costs with the interest will reach 2% of GDP next year, and what the National Authority for Fiscal Administration collects in a month out of twelve will be paid for interest, says Alin Chitu, State Secretary in the Ministry of Finances (MF).‘We start from an area where we get gradually to 25% fiscal income in the GDP and either we decide to reduce expenses, including social services and I am talking about the ones which consume a lot, Health, Education so that we can keep this level of taxes that we have now, or it will be necessary to do some things, to collect more. And I ask you not to forget that next year we reach 2% of GDP for the interest costs. Practically, what the National Tax Administration Agency (ANAF) collects in a month out of twelve we pay for interests. And then, in a way, this balance is necessary in a way or another, not only from the perspective of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) stated Alin Chitu in the conference ‘ Competition in key sectors’ organized by the Competition Council.Asked about the fiscal reform, he said that ‘this is not a reform, but they are some steps, some decisions’.According to the MF representative, Romania must get at 30% fiscal income from GDP and for this the income must increase by 3%. This year, adjustments on the tax side will bring 1% of GDP.He also stated that the measures for digitization will bring four percentage points budget revenues at the finalization of PNRR.
