The draft budget for 2023 is ready, Minister of Finance Assen Vassilev said. The bill is due to be published for public consultation and to enter parliament in early July.
Within the framework of the Sofia Economic Forum IV, Vassilev pointed out that the budget includes measures for a deficit of 3% without affecting social policy and taxes, but with higher tax collection envisaged. Minister Vassilev expects that "this year the wage rise will be twice the rate of inflation". According to him, if wages in our country continued to grow faster than GDP, the country would cope with the shortage of high-quality labor.
BSP announced that the budget is anti-social and they would not support it. "This is an accounting document, not a policy-making tool," summed up BSP leader Korneliya Ninova and specified that her party would prepare an alternative budget.
