Ialomitianu said Victor Ponta is the worst prime minister Romania has ever had. He also said the purpose of the motion is to have the 2013 state budget submitted in Parliament until November 1, before the parliamentary elections due on December 9.

According to Ialomitianu, the law regulating public finance stipulates the state budget for the next year must be submitted in Parliament until October 15 of the current year.

Democrat liberal Cezar Preda has recently said PDL would submit simple motions every week and would soon present a report on the activity of the ruling Social Liberal Union.
