Budget Act 1957
of 18 April 1957
The National Assembly of the Czechoslovak Republic decided on the following Act:
State budget objectives
The funds are set out by the state budget as the basic financial plan of the State, and their main source is the socialist production and building efforts of the working people; It serves for the economic fulfilment of all the tasks of the national plan for the development of the national economy, in particular to accelerate the development of production forces, particularly in the heavy industry, the substantial increase in agricultural production and the development of uniform agricultural cooperatives, the introduction of new techniques into production, the substantial increase in labour productivity and, therefore, the sustained increase in the material and cultural level of the working people and the promotion of peace-keeping efforts. In order to achieve these objectives, the active participation of the people in ensuring the rapid growth of national income and in promoting economy needs to be increased.
Determination of State Budget
(1) The total revenue of the state budget is determined by the amount of CZK 98.240,492.000, the total expenditure by the amount of CZK 97.918,878.000, resulting in a surplus of CZK 321,614.000; within the budget of the State, the revenue for Slovakia is fixed by the amount of CZK 14.699,063.000 and the expenditure by the amount of CZK 16.848,611.000; The Slovak National Council may increase revenue above the fixed amount and by the same amount and expenditure.
(2) The national budget includes the budgets of the national committees, the revenue and expenditure of which are CZK 26.170.391.000; in addition, the balance of the national committees' budget amounts to CZK 441,800,000 by 1958.
(3) In order to balance the budgets of the national committees, the Government provides for shares in state revenue.
Management by State Budget
(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. Similarly, the Government may authorise a reduction in some of the national budget revenue if it exports such a reduction by increasing other national budget revenue or by reducing expenditure.
Management responsibility
The Government and each member, the Board of Directors and each member thereof, the heads of the other central offices and the Board of National Committees, as well as the Heads of Union and Board of National Committees, shall be responsible for ensuring that, in their field of competence, all the planned tasks are carried out economically, that the reserves arising in the emerging economy are detected and used, that the revenue amounts of the State budget will be at least achieved and that the expenditure is not exceeded, except in cases permitted under this law.
Timing of appropriations
(1) Budget appropriations may be used only by the end of 1957, 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 1957 must not be deferred to the next year's budget.
(3) Referring to money to cover commitments arising after 31 December 1957 or forming any other reserve for savings on budgetary appropriations is not allowed.
Detection of budgetary consequences of legal and other measures
(1) In the case of bills, legal measures of the Bureau of the National Assembly, the laws of the Slovak National Council, government regulations, government resolutions, regulations of the Assembly of Authors, resolutions of the Assembly of Commissions, regulations of delegates, decrees and all measures of the Central Offices, as well as proposals of resolutions of the National Committees and their councils, they must be considered with the greatest responsibility and the consequences of their economic and financial consequences in the proposals. The consequences of these measures, in particular for post-State budget expenditure, for population revenue and expenditure balance or for the credit plan, 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, such new revenue must always be proposed.
(2) At the same time, all the measures referred to in paragraph 1, which increase expenditure or reduce the revenue of the State budget, must provide for the payment of increased expenditure or the reimbursement of revenue loss.
Inadmissibility of netting of claims against the State
The debtor may not pay his obligation to the State by offsetting his claim on the State.
Supplementary budgets of national committees
(1) If the national committee has achieved, or has certainly achieved, higher revenue than its budget has set, or if it saves on budgeted expenditure, while carrying out all its planned tasks, it may draw up an additional budget.
(2) In order to obtain higher revenue as resources for complementary budgets, the national committees primarily develop services and local production, thereby creating conditions for further development of the economy and culture in their district and thereby extending their economic base.
(3) The supplementary budget must be balanced.
(4) The additional budget of the National Lower Level Committee shall be approved by the Board of the National Higher Level Committee.
(5) The details shall be laid down by the Minister for Finance; in so doing, it shall also establish a procedure for the transfer of unused additional appropriations by next year.
Interim State Management in 1958
The Government shall take appropriate measures for the State's management from 1 January 1958 until the Budget Act for 1958 is published, unless the Budget Act for that year is declared before 1 January 1958. Paragraph 4, 6, 7 and 10 (1) (b) and (2) shall apply mutatis mutandis to this period.
Final provisions
(1) The Government is hereby authorised,
(a) to reflect in the State budget the financial consequences of the modifications to the national economic development plan;
(b) to use the financial surpluses of previous years to cover liabilities from previous years.
(2) Minister for Finance
(a) issue 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 national committees, the tying of appropriations to cover the tasks which have been lost and the procedure for the reimbursement of expenditure on tasks which are not fully budgeted. In so doing, the Minister of Finance may allow a derogation from the provisions of Paragraph 5 (1);
(b) make arrangements for the use of overplank profits and the payment of unplanned and overplank losses by economic organisations of the state socialist sector, including in the period prior to the application of this law;
(c) is entitled to provide for the use of revenue for the excluded basic resources of economic organisations of the state socialist sector, even by way of derogation from the provisions of § 4 (2), third sentence, Act No. 106 / 1951 Coll., on the financing of national and municipal enterprises.
(2) The provisions of Sections 4 (3) and 12 of Act No. 106 / 1951 Coll., on the Financing of National and Municipal Enterprises, Section 10 of Government Decree No. 107 / 1951 Coll., implementing the Act on the Financing of National and Municipal Enterprises, and Section 9 of Act No. 83 / 1952 Coll., on the budgets of National Committees are deleted.
(3) This Law shall take effect on 1 January 1957; by the Minister for Finance and other members of the Government.
