Muresan said the 372-measure program was drafted in five days and validated by the three parties on Friday. Key pledges include reducing the number of lawmakers, capping state secretaries, banning simultaneous pensions and state salaries, reforming the tax authority ANAF and state-owned companies, keeping the flat tax, and returning VAT to 19% when the budget allows.
