Budget Act 1955
of 23 March 1955
The National Assembly of the Czechoslovak Republic decided on the following Act:
State budget objectives.
The funds provided for by the State budget as the basic financial plan of the State, the source of which is mainly the socialist production and the building effort of the working people, serve to further develop production, to ensure security and to continuously increase the material and cultural level of the working people and to support efforts to maintain peace. They must therefore be used in such a way as to fulfil all the tasks of the national economic development plan, in particular those in the basic sectors, in the coal, energy and ore bases and to increase agricultural production; This will ensure that the increasing needs of workers are met.
Determination of the amount of the State budget.
(1) The total revenue of the state budget is determined by the amount of CZK 86.209,424.000, the total expenditure by the amount of CZK 86.039,452.000, resulting in a surplus of CZK 169,972,000.
(2) The national budget includes the budgets of the national committees, whose revenue and expenditure amount to CZK 15.523.742.000; in addition, the balance of the national committees' budget before 1956 amounts to CZK 441,800,000.
(3) In order to balance the budgets of the national committees, the Government sets out the percentage shares in State revenue.
Government budget management.
(1) Expenditure (both investment and non-investment) may be effected only up to the amounts laid down in the State budget.
(2) The Government may authorise the execution of the necessary expenditure, not covered by the State budget, provided that its reimbursement is secured by higher revenue or by the removal of other, less urgent expenditure.
Responsibility for the economy.
The Government and each member, the heads of the other central offices and the Councils of the Regional National Committees, are responsible for ensuring that, in their field of competence, all the planned tasks are met economically, that the reserves arising in the emerging economy are detected and used, that the revenue of the state budget is at least achieved and that the expenditure is not exceeded, except in cases permitted under this law.
Timely use of appropriations.
(1) Budget appropriations may be used only until the end of 1955, and only to cover expenditure due by the end of that year.
(2) Reimbursement of expenditure which, under the provisions of this Act, may be subject to a financial burden for 1955 must not be deferred to the next year's budget.
(3) Referring money to cover commitments arising after 31 December 1955 or forming any other reserve for savings on budget appropriations is not permitted.
Detection of budgetary implications for legal and other measures.
For draft laws, legal measures of the Bureau of the National Assembly, the laws of the Slovak National Council, government regulations, government resolutions, resolutions of the Assembly of Authors, regulations of the Assembly of Authors, regulations of ministers, mandates and all measures of the Central Authorities, as well as motions for resolutions of the Regional National Committees and their councils must be considered with the greatest responsibility of their economic and financial consequences. The implications of these measures for State budget expenditure or revenue should be quantified and the calculation added to the draft measure. In each of the proposed measures, it must be examined whether its nature permits the introduction of new revenue and, if so, that new revenue must always be proposed.
Burden of state budgets for years to come.
(1) Any measure which exceeds the approved State budget in time and which, with its consequences, is burdensome or could be burdensome by state budgets in the years to come, such as the expansion of offices and public authorities, the establishment, after the extension of other facilities, the conclusion of new rental contracts, the issue of new periodical printing materials and long-term orders, must be subject to prior approval by the authority referred to in paragraph 2 if such measures would result in a new or higher cost to the Treasury.
(2) Such measures may be approved by the Central Authority or made in the field of its own competence if, under other regulations, the approval of the State Systemisation Commission is not required and the expected cost does not exceed, on a case-by-case basis, the amount of CZK 50,000 per year and the total of all cases of CZK 800,000 per year. In other cases, the approval of the Ministry of Finance shall be required and, if there is a burden exceeding 50 million CZK per case, the government's approval.
Inadmissibility to set off claims against the State.
The debtor may not pay his obligation to the State by offsetting his claim on the State.
Provisional management of state management in 1956.
The Government shall take appropriate measures for the State's management between 1 January 1956 and the publication of the Budget Act for 1956, unless the Budget Act for that year is declared before 1 January 1956.
Final provisions.
(1) The Government is hereby authorised to reflect in the State budget the modifications to the State Plan for the Development of the National Economy.
(2) The Minister of Finance shall issue more detailed guidelines for the management and control of the State budget, in particular as regards the use of budgetary appropriations, the reimbursement of expenditure on new tasks imposed on the national committees, the tying of budgetary appropriations to cover the tasks that have been lost and the procedure for the reimbursement of expenditure on tasks not fully secured by the budget. In so doing, the Minister of Finance may allow a derogation from the provisions of Paragraph 5 (1).
Efficiency.
This Law shall take effect on 1 January 1955; by the Minister for Finance and other members of the Government.
