National Economy Minister Mihály Varga is proposing replacing state secretary for the labour market and vocational training Sándor Czomba, who resigned with effect from September 30, with Péter Cseresnyés, a former mayor and now a member of Parliamentʼs economy committee.

Varga is recommending replacing Bela Glattfelder, secretary for economic regulation, with Istvan Lepsényi, an engineer who was earlier the top executive at Magyar Suzuki and Knorr-Bremse Fékrendszer.
