Romanian Govt To Seek Confidence Vote In Parl To Pass Education Bill Unless Adopted By Senate

Videanu said the Government will probably seek the lawmakers’ confidence vote to pass the education bill if the Senate fails to adopt it.

Prime Minister Emil Boc on Saturday said the Government will have no problem seeking a confidence vote in Parliament to pass the education bill if the Senate fails to adopt it within a reasonable timescale. He stressed the Government wants reforms in the education sector to be carried through.

The education bill was adopted by the Lower Chamber on May 19, 2010 and is pending approval by the Senate.
