Prime Minister Victor Ponta asked this morning to leadership sports federations present at Nadia Hall of the sports ministry to expedite the development package of support in this field, which has given numerous European champions, world and Olympic.

He reminded them that they are late, since it's been a year since he asked the exact same thing.

Victor Ponta believes that future legislation should include a strategy for the next 15-20 years.

The prime minister also said that, alongside the sports minister, he will support the adoption by Parliament of this legislative package, even if the effects will not immediately be visible.

He asked that the legislative package to include everything related to the labor market, sponsorship arrangements, anything that can help to medium and long term development of Romanian sports.
