According to him, the government and the relevant ministry will draft proposals on the mechanism for providing compensation for November and December of this year, as well as for January, February, and March of next year.
“We cannot leave people to face this price increase on their own. The state will intervene and help citizens,” Grosu said in an interview with the Moldpres news agency.
The Speaker of Parliament noted that the authorities are considering a return to the mechanism of providing compensation directly through utility bills, which, in his opinion, proved to be more effective.
“We will likely return to providing compensation directly through utility bills this year. I believe that the initial experience, when compensation was provided directly through utility bills, was better than the approach we used this year,” said Igor Grosu.
At the same time, the head of parliament called on citizens and government agencies to use energy resources more efficiently.
“If no one is in the room, there’s no need to leave the lights on. These are our resources, and this applies to both government agencies and consumption in our homes and apartments,” noted Grosu.
In addition, the Emergency Commission decided to cut government spending on fuel by 20% in light of the difficult period the country is currently experiencing.
Prime Minister Vasile Tofan had previously spoken about possible compensation measures. The government is currently working to secure financial resources to support vulnerable groups of citizens.
