Moldovan acting premier chairs meeting of governmental commission for European integration

Chisinau, 8 July /MOLDPRES/ - The members of the government today assembled within the Governmental Commission for European Integration (CGIE), to approve updates for implementing the Moldova-EU Association Agreement National Action Plan (PNAAA), to discuss the latter's implementation in the first half of 2015 as well as the developments in the first year after the signing of the Agreement, the government’s communication and media relations department has reported.

In the beginning of the meeting, the participants agreed on the list of high-level EU advisers, who, starting from 1 January 2016, will help reform the priority sectors for the implementation of the Association Agreement. Moreover, in most problematic sectors – the financial sector, banking system and fighting corruption - advisers will be hired in the nearest future. The selection procedure has already been launched.

At the meeting, the ministers approved the final updated version of the PNAAA, which includes appropriate adjustments of the measures and deadlines for the completion of articles from the AA / DCFTA, considering the results of the first months of implementation, and the recommendations of the European partners. The civil society consulted the plan. The CGIE also ruled to give the wide public access to the online platform of reporting on the Action Plan, which allows viewing the level of achievement of each action separately and the progress made in implementing the Agreement.
