The financial daily Hospodarske noviny (HN) wrote this week that the ODS proposes to lower the social insurance from the current 12.5 percent to 10 prcent next year while the basic flat income tax would be kept at 15 percent.
Finance Minister Miroslav Kalousek (Christian Democrats, KDU-CSL), however is opposed to such a change.
He has proposed at a government session to lower insurance to a mere 11.5 percent, saying this is the maximum the state budget can tolerate.
