Parliament committees will be hearing all minister nominees Monday morning and a confidence vote on the proposed Cabinet is expected in the afternoon.
Ponta said recently he is confident his Cabinet will receive a confidence vote as the Social Liberal Union has 231 seats in Parliament, the exact number of votes the Cabinet needs to take office, and is also counting on the support of national minorities and the Hungarian minority party UDMR.
