Dragoi said the Lottery is the only company coordinated by the ministry that falls under the provisions of emergency decree 109/2011, which regulates the introduction of private management at state-run companies.
He said an economic-financial inspection was set up within the ministry, which, he added, is tasked with checking the budgets of state-run companies and the way they observe the law-required cost standards. It will also look into the absorption of European Union funds, but only on segments facing problems in absorbing funds.
Dragoi said the status and duties of the new body were discussed and agreed with officials from the Court of Accounts to avoid any overlapping of duties.
