Chisinau, 19 June /MOLDPRES/ - The decision on government’s resignation was published in the Moldovan Official Journal today.

The legislation stipulates that the resignation of the prime minister leads to the resignation of the government in full composition.

The acting (resigned) government fulfills only the duties of managing public affairs till a new cabinet is sworn in office.

Thus, the acting government’s main duties are to implement laws, control the work of central specialised bodies, and carry out economic and social development programmes, etc.

President Nicolae Timofti is to appoint an interim prime minister and, within three months after the government’s resignation, – to designate a new candidate for the office of prime minister.

The Gaburici government was sworn in office on 18 February 2015. Chiril Gaburici announced his resignation on 12 June.
