"We are convinced that many of the members of the Assembly who raised their hand in favor of this proposal did not know that with their vote they were depriving students and teachers of a significant part of the income that ensures the normal life and work of the school. We believe, however, that for the members of parliament we are more than a number "Parcele 54 "", he writes at the end of the letter.
