/ world today news/ The budget of our capital in 2013 will be nearly BGN 60 million smaller. The total planned funds for Sofia are BGN 1.2 billion.
The reason for the smaller amount is that a large part of the subway is already built. Priority areas for the Municipality in 2013 will be education and environmental projects, transport reform, infrastructure.
Yordanka Fankakova discusses the parameters of the Municipality’s budget with the trade unions. According to her, this format was initiated by her, similar to the Tripartite Council, where trade unions, the state and employers discuss the state budget together.
