The National Council continues debating next year's state budget proposal. Finance Minister Ladislav Kamenický said that, in his view, Slovakia does not face a budget provisional regime. domov.sme.sk ↗
Kamenický described the budget proposal as a "budget of social reconciliation." MPs have been discussing the law of the year for the second day, with the coalition pushing for its approval within the regular deadline. postoj.sk ↗
MP Ján Jakab criticized the changes to the rules governing the budget provisional regime. He stated that under the new rules, the government could spend the entire budget for the following year within the first nine months. MP Ján Blcháč rejected claims that the changes represent grounds for fearmongering. teraz.sk ↗
The process of adopting the budget was also criticized by the Chairman of the Supreme Audit Office, Ľubomír Andrassy. He said the office did not have even 48 hours to prepare its statutory opinion, and therefore failed to properly assess the proposal in time. This is the first such case in more than 30 years. sme.sk ↗
The debate in parliament continues. The next steps will be decided by MPs' vote on the budget proposal and related changes to the rules in case the budget cannot be approved on time.

„Transakčná daň pre mňa nie je posvätná krava. Ak by na nej mal stáť rozpočet, som ochotný ju obetovať. Ale musí byť vykompenzovaná fiškálnymi opatreniami."
Minister financií krátko pred premiérovým oznámením, keď potvrdil, že koalícia o transakčnej dani diskutuje. Diskusiu vtedy označil za nafúknutú vec.
