Prime Minister -designate, Victor Ponta declared that Boc and Ungureanu governments have never allotted money to the ‘ wage recovery and for pensioners to be returned the social welfare contributions(CAS)’.

Victor Ponta revealed that all statements made by Emil Boc and Mihai Răzvan Ungureanu were only words without coverage.

"It has become quite clear that neither the Boc cabinet, nor Ungureanu government in any second or place, alloted money to the wage recoup.They alloted only words. They alloted no leu to return the amounts illegally collected from pensioners, although the Constitutional Court has ruled the decision for quite a long time and it was obvious.

" Neither the Boc cabinet, nor the Ungureanu cabinet refrained from assigning amounts and money from the Reserve Fund mainly to the barons of the Democratic Liberal Party , taking into account no other criterion than the political one", said Victor Ponta.

He also added there are solutions to recover the wages and pensioners to receive the money back from CAS.
