The National Reform Programme (2011 - 2015)(NRP) in fulfillment of the objectives of the “Europe 2020” strategy.
30/03/2011
The Committee on the European Affairs and Oversight of the European Funds (CEAOEF) with collaboration with the Budget and Finance Committee, on 30 March 2011 considered the second version of the National Reform Programme (2011 - 2015)(NRP) in fulfillment of the objectives of the “Europe 2020” strategy. The focus was on the European Commission’s legislative proposals package for strengthening of the economic governance of European Union. The package is part of the Annual Working Program of the National Assembly on the issues of the EU.
In continuation of the discussion initiated on 29 March in the frameworks of the Council for Public Consultations of CEAOEF on the issues of the new economic governance of the EU, Mrs Boryana Pencheva, deputy minister of Finance, presented the version of the National Reform Program (2011 - 2015) in fulfillment of the objectives of the Europe 2020 strategy. It represents the 10 measures laid in the Annual Growth Survey (from January 2011). She specified that the Member States should have elaborated the final versions of their NRP until the end of April 2011 and should introduce them for approval of the European Commission.
The intelligent, sustainable and inclusive growth are at the basis of the reforms which are to give fast results; they are the engine of the reforms. Five are the specific priorities which should stimulate the economic governance.
1) A stable financial and bank sector. On that index Bulgaria holds notably good positions in comparison to the other Member States of the EU.
2) Better infrastructure – a vital growth factor;
3) Competitive youth. The main accent here is on the measures for preventing the untimely quitting the education system and increasing the number of people who obtain high education but not on the account of the quality of the provided education.
4) Ensuring better business environment.
5) Increasing the trust between the state institutions.
On the sitting it was introduced and discussed the EC six legislative proposals pact for new economic governance of the EU which aims intensifying the action of the Stability and Growth Pact. The point of these new measures is a common response to potential future shakes to be given at European level, the national budget procedures to be synchronized and the budget observation in the Euro zone to be effectively implemented which will include a new composition of sanctions for the Member States for non – fulfillment of the obligations and responsibilities.
