"It is important that the memorandum be prepared before the holidays, so that the first session of the Development Dialogue can be prepared and carried out by the new year," asserted the Prime Minister, stressing the importance of intergenerational solidarity, "which should be part of the Development Dialogue".

 

"The so-called new development paradigm calls for the knowledge, experience and wisdom of the older generation, and we are ready to pay attention to all proposals," said Prime Minister Pahor and pointed to the need to integrate all the intellectual potential available. Furthermore, he underlined that all harmonised proposals should be sustainable in terms of public finance, while due attention should be paid to the consequences of the decisions made.
