Gov't okays budget rectification on Monday

October 22, 2024

The Government approved the budgetary rectification for the state budget, the social insurance budget and the unemployment insurance budget, taking into account the macrocosmic forecasts developed by the National Forecasting Commission, the Minister of Finance, Marcel Bolos, announced on Monday.The indicators on which the rectification was carried out are economic growth revised to 2.8%, a GDP deflator of 7.2% and an updated GDP of 1768.8 billion RON.The revenues of the general consolidated budget in 2024 reach 620.2 billion RON and the expenses of the general consolidated budget amount to 743 billion RON.   "There is a surplus of budget revenues after the first eight months, revenues that we use to develop Romania! 84% of the deficit goes to the investment area. We are the first European state in terms of the ratio between the deficit and the volume of investments. Obviously, at this level investment record, the budget deficit also increases to 6.9% of the Gross Domestic Product, but it is a sustainable deficit, taking into account that 8.5 RON out of 10 RON spent go to highways, hospitals, schools and gas networks, water and other objectives of local interest," stated Marcel Ciolacu at the beginning of the government meeting.The prime minister said that this money returns to the economy and multiplies: for one euro invested, six or eight euros return to the state."That's why we have to go forward with a lot of courage. We don't have time for philosophers who, as prime ministers, had a deficit of 9.2%, and investments were only 1.7% of GDP. They only knew how to consume, not to build! Now, the consumption margin is very limited and it is vital to keep it that way," said Ciolacu. (Photo:https://gov.ro/)
