Labour and Social Protection Minister expected in Parliament as opposition files simple motion

Members of the parliamentary opposition today submitted a simple motion regarding the policies of the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection. They asked Minister Natalia Plugaru to come to Parliament to explain the situation in the social sector.

The motion was presented by Ala Ursu-Antoci, an MP from the Party of Socialists of the Republic of Moldova. She referred to demographic policies, the programme to support citizens during the cold season, and measures to assist vulnerable categories of citizens.
