Passos Coelho: There are measures of PS economists who “are quite liberal – I do not subscribe to the”

Pedro Passos Coelho said in an interview with observer, that the reduction of TSU for workers and companies, as proposed by the PS economists are “unaffordable”. And it shows “surprised” with the idea of ​​conciliatory dismissal.

The dismissal mechanism “conciliatory” the PS economists defended and that must be entered is “quite liberal, “says Pedro Passos Coelho. In an interview with the Observer, the prime minister says the proposals to reduce the single social tax are “unaffordable” and declares “ideologically” surprised by the proposals of the PS economists for the labor area.

“There is the idea of ​​an arbitration mechanism that is proposed by the PS, so people can migrate within companies to permanent contracts. And those that companies need not can dismiss by higher compensation to what the law now provides “begins to answer the Prime Minister

.” A mechanism of these is a fairly liberal mechanism – and to get really amazed that a party like the PS, who never agreed to review a concept even in a just cause, unlike what happened with the socialists in Italy, which were reviewed and much further in the labor reform, accept deep a system that allows fire, albeit at a higher cost, “adds Pedro Passos Coelho, who added that there measures that do not subscribe.

Throughout the interview, the Prime Minister maintains that the PS will not comply with the budgetary commitments, noting that both the proposal to reduce workers’ TSU as the proposal to reduce TSU companies – that though the PS postponed, conditioning it to obtain new revenue – are “unaffordable”

“Any of them is unaffordable.. Any of them. The two together, finally, beyond the border of what is reasonable even discuss within the flexibility of the Stability Pact or other flexibility “she says.

” The PS has proclaimed that it will abide by the rules. But today, all that is advertised does not allow us to conclude that the rules will be respected, on the contrary. But that has to do with being the center or not. There are measures presented by PS economists who are perfectly liberal – I do not endorse. But are liberal, “says, explaining later that refers both to the reduction of TSU as the proposed measures for the labor area.
