“I am sorry that the decision and the bill come to Seimas so late, but we considered both bills at the same time, including the GPM, which is associated with many methodological and accounting problems. Everything had to be resolved. I read these myself. documents carefully and the matter just continued, ”G. Nausėda told reporters on Thursday, urging parliamentarians to be more understanding.
“It really is not a lack of respect for the Seimas. I would like to understand that we all work under certain critical conditions, we want decisions to be made earlier, we do not want to postpone them for a single day. I hope there is an understanding and a desire to work together and help each other, “said the President.
On Thursday, the leader of the “peasants” R. Karbauskis criticized G. Nausėda’s advisers for showing disrespect for the Seimas. The politician was criticized for the initiatives presented to the Seimas of the Presidency on Wednesday night and proposed its consideration as a matter of urgency, which were presented last week, to provide unique benefits to children and reduce personal income tax. .
“It is logically difficult to explain why it was necessary to present proposals last night and demand that they be adopted with special urgency today.” It is a kind of disrespect. I am convinced that the President does not know that this was done, “R. Karbauskis said in Seimas on Thursday.
R. Karbauskis has been criticized by the president’s advisers before
The leader of the “peasants” has previously criticized the presidential team, but not the head of the country. Povilas Mačiulis, G. Nausėda’s senior adviser, received a strict assessment from R. Karbauskis this year after he told LRT radio that the schemes published by R. Karbauskis about relatives allegedly employed by the former Minister of Transport and Rokas Masiulis Communications is a “political reality show”. The arguments, argued by P. Mačiulis, are not convincing.
R. Karbauskis, in response to this speech by Eltai’s presidential adviser, stated that P. Mačiulis’s statements are completely absurd.
“We have already come across the statements of P. Mačiulis, when he does not speak as the president thinks. As a result, he was in no way able to see Mr. Mačiulis’ statements as those of the Presidency. This is a personal statement by P. Mačiulis, which has nothing to do with the Presidency’s opinion. He has repeatedly said contradictory things, for example, when he said about the abolition of the single-member elections, and then the president had to deny his words, “said R Karbauskis to Eltai.
ELTA recalls that the President proposed that Seimas adopt a law under which children from low-income and large families, as well as children with disabilities, would receive a global benefit of 200 euros and a global payment of 120 euros for all the other children in July. The Seimas approved this proposal on Thursday after its presentation.
The President also introduced an amendment to the law, which proposes to temporarily reduce, until the end of the year, the standard personal income tax rate (PIT) from 20 to 15 percent, applying it to the earnings of all employees at the level than 3 average wages (VMU).
The head of state also proposed to advance the planned increase in the amount of tax-free income (NPD) and introduce a NPD higher than 50 euros already this year.
As envisioned on the Seimas agenda on Thursday, it is intended to present only one proposal to parliament this week, which plans to support families with children with lump sums.
