RADIO ROMANIA NEWS (22 February) - Producer: Laurentiu Vaduva - The Government will release more than 2.000 vacancies in the health and social assistance sectors in a meeting currently underway. Also on the executive's agenda are laws approving state aid for tomato, potato and garlic producers, as well as livestock farmers. Petruta Obrejan has details.

Reporter: More than 2.000 jobs will be freed up in the health and social assistance system, Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu announced, saying that since the beginning of the year, more than 7.600 jobs have been freed up, meeting the demands of trade unions. The head of the executive also said that the current cabinet aims to attract around 10.000 doctors and nurses to public hospitals this year. Also on the agenda of the meeting are new support measures for Romanian farmers.

Marcel Ciolacu: I am glad that the Minister of Agriculture came to today's meeting with new measures to support Romanian farmers. In total, we are allocating almost 600 million lei for tomato, potato and garlic growers, as well as for livestock farmers. We need to increase Romanian production and I encourage Minister Barbu to continue to come up with such solutions so that Romanians have access to quality Romanian food.

Reporter: Also, more than 4.000 transporters will receive half of the increase in diesel excise duty.

Marcel Ciolacu: We have managed to reduce the prices of RCA policies. Today we will also decide to compensate for the increase in diesel excise duty. Specifically, the Government will refund to road hauliers licensed in Romania half of the increase in diesel excise duty.

Reporter: Plus, more than 9.200 Romanian companies will be supported to develop their businesses and maintain their jobs in the coming period.
