According to a draft Government decision, ANAF's new structure includes a president, four vice-presidents, a secretary general and various public servants and contracted staff. The maximum number of positions will be reduced by almost 5000, to 29,100.

The document says similar departments of the three bodies will merge, namely those in charge of public auditing, public procurement and investments, professional training, IT services, public relations and international cooperation.

Prime Minister Emil Boc said in late February that the Ministry of Interior and the Ministry of Finance are behind schedule as regards restructuring. This merger was announced as early as last year, in May, by ANAF president Sorin Blejnar.
