When it comes to their own comfort, the Senators don’t mind spending money. The Senate’s shopping list of last year clearly proves it.

In addition to current expenditures, such as paper, computers and printers repairs, the Senators also bought champagne glasses, cups, flowers or floral arrangements, television sets and bottles of champagne.

By far, the most expensive acquisition is represented by the 10 last generation flat TV screens . Perhaps this is why the price paid was so high. Each of them costs over 12,000 lei.

On the other hand, senators are big consumers of bulbs: the shopping list contains 6,000 of them, enough to illuminate a city.

However, the extravagant expenditures include 150 bottles of extra dry champagne. And since you cannot have campaign in any glass, the Senate ordered the purchase of some special glasses for Champaign.

Also last year the senators renewed their tableware by 200 cups. In 2014, the senators longer needed 450 badges, which cost 30,000 lei, 8,000 paper bags and 1000 calendars, for which they paid 40,000 lei.

They have also purchased 30 ceramic plates, 25 pieces of handicrafts, medals or plaques worth 57,000 lei and 150 floral arrangements.


The total value of the Senate’s shopping list for the last year amounts to nearly 4 million lei.
