2017 State Budget Figures Published

Irakli Kovzanadze, Chairman of the Parliamentary Budget and Finance Committee, had stated that the 2017 national budget fulfilment is not questionable at all, as he published the statistics for the first half of 2017 state budget performance. 

According to Kovzanadze, the revenue plan was met with an excess of 103.1 million GEL, while the tax revenue plan was met with a staggering 207.8 million GEL(105.1%). The expenditure plan has reached 95.1%. 

As the chairman of the parliamentary Budget and Finance committee noted, some disappointment was seen in the expenditure figures at the beginning of the year, but nevertheless, today, the adoption of the budget by the Ministry of Regional Development and Infrastructure of Georgia, Ministry of Internal Affairs, Ministry of Labour, Health and Social Affairs of Georgia and Ministry of Agriculture of Georgia has actually reached 100%
