The Prime Minister underlined that

the government’s work on pensions does not stop here: preparations for the introduction of the 14th-month pension are well underway. This will be introduced gradually but certainly implemented next year.

He stressed that the guiding principle of his government remains unchanged: they deliver on what they promise.

Steadily growing income, predictable years in retirement. No small thing in this changing and dangerous world. Respect for the elderly!
