The government has approved a mechanism for court-mandated compensation for pension cuts made during the crisis, under which payments will be phased over several years starting in the fourth quarter of 2014. The Constitutional Court ruled in February 2012 that the government had to compensate pensioners for the pension cuts. The government will use surplus revenue in the state social insurance fund Sodra’s budget as the source of funds for compensation payments.
