Nicolae Ciucă reportedly called for raising the tax-free threshold for military pensions, which do not benefit from the recently adopted law. The proposal is controversial.

Although the recently adopted law abolishes taxation on pensions up to 3,000 lei, this measure does not apply to military pensions that have a non-contributory component. At the request of General Nicolae Ciucă, the Ministry of Finance is expected to put a draft law on the table for public debate to remedy the situation.
