Bulgaria's Ministry of Finance is refraining from cutting budget salaries for the time being, said Minister of Finance Vladislav Goranov in parliament. So far, no staff reductions are envisaged, but staff appraisals in the state budget structures will be conducted. A more likely scenario will be that additional cost containment measures would be required. When we see that this is necessary, we will propose it, Goranov said. 

Teachers will receive their full salaries if they have at least 5 astronomical hours of daily workload and 25 hours a week in distance learning, said Education Minister Krassimir Valchev.
