We Continue the Change Co-chairman Assen Vassilev called on the caretaker cabinet to urgently introduce a bill to extend the validity of the state budget for 2024. 

According to him, if such a bill is not adopted by the end of the year, the normal functioning of the country's financial system will be at risk – health contributions will not be able to be collected, there will be no compensation to businesses over the price of eletricity and the payment of pensions will also be at risk.
