Voinea, who Thursday attended the talks related to the government draft on prioritizing public investment projects, said that the money should go to projects justified from economic and social point of view.

In 2012, the main 20 public investment projects amounted to RON4.7 billion, from total funds worth RON11 billion.

For 2014, state budget investments total RON13.3 billion, out of which RON5 billion will go to the first 20 big projects. Around RON8 billion of the total sum will be directed to the 375 undergoing public investment projects.

In 2014, the biggest project financed from state budget funds is Drumul Taberei – Universitate subway line, with RON436 million, followed by RON200 million investments in Bucharest National Theater. Nevertheless, most of the projects are related to road infrastructure.

Previous World Bank reports said that the inefficient management of public investment projects was the main obstacle in the absorption of structural and cohesion funds in Romania.
