After the governmental meeting held in Vásárosnamény, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán declared that the major reforms implemented during the past two years will begin to bear fruit in 2013: overhead expenses will decrease, wages will increase, the employment situation will improve, and the state has more resources available to employ more people.

Among the significant changes, he mentioned the establishment of the administrative districts system and the overhaul of the education system, reiterating that despite the positive trends, the plan to create one million new workplaces within 10 years must still be realized.



He stated that according to surveys, the decisive majority of people agree with the principle of work instead of benefits, so they expect the Government to create livelihood opportunities in the form of jobs, not allowances, and to enable the unemployed to make more money from the work offered than they would from benefits. This is a fundamental requirement of the people of Hungary, he added.
