PSD and PNL agree on future pensions

The PSD (Social-Democrat Party) and the PNL (National Liberal Party) managed to agree on the pension law and the labor committee of the Parliament decided yesterday to rise pensions the way the PSD wanted, so that the minimum pension would reach 37,5% of the average gross wages starting with January 1, 2008 and 45% starting with January 2009.(...)
Satisfied with the outcome, the PSD members dropped the idea to come up with parliamentary bill against the Liberal government and keep the text in the drawer until the final voting on the project, due in the Chamber of Deputies today. The PSD leader Mircea Geoana threatened that PSD MPs playing truant today would be expelled from the parliamentary group in the Chamber of Deputies.
