Prime Minister Iurie Leanca has instructed relevant agencies to analyze how privatization contracts are being respected. He noted that some objects of public property that were transferred into private hands are now in a deplorable state and recalled that the government has the right to ask them back if the owners fail to meet their contractual obligations.
Deputy Economy Minister Octavian Calmic confirmed that some privatized facilities have been idle and some were forsaken and are now falling into dilapidation. “We have taken action in court to have some of them back into public ownership, but the examination of the cases is dragging on”, said Octavian Calmic.
The prime minister insisted to see a thorough analysis in the shortest time possible. “I want this analysis to be exhaustive and include information about how contractual obligations are being respected not only by those who privatized small objects, but also by those who privatized larger objects of state property”, said Iurie Leanca.
