Budget is a financial plan based on the annual estimates of receipts and expenditures. The budget is adopted for the fiscal year and is valid during the year for which it is passed. The fiscal year is the calendar year. The budget includes the current budget, funding transactions, capital budget, budget of state funds and reserves (current and permanent).
Planning and execution of the budget, fiscal responsibility, borrowings and guarantees and other issues significant for the budget of Montenegro and the budgets of municipalities are regulated by the Law on Budget and Fiscal Responsibility (“Official Gazette of Montenegro”, No. 20/14), the systemic law on the budget, adopted by the Parliament of Montenegro of the 25th Convocation, at the Second Sitting of the First Ordinary (Spring) Session in 2014, on 14 April 2014. The Law on Budget (“Official Gazette MNE”, No. 40/01 and 71/05 and “Official Gazette MNE” No. 12/07, 53/09 and 49/10) has ceased to be valid on the day of the entry into force of the new Law.
The new law introduces novelties related to: fiscal policy and accountability, responsibility of budget executors and measures, inspection and penalty provisions.
In line with European Union acquis, the numerical fiscal rules envisaged by criteria from Maastricht have been established, relating to the rules on deficit and public debt, and the mid-term budget framework has also been introduced. The limit of maximum deficit at the level of 3% of gross national product has been defined, i.e. the limit of maximum level of indebtedness at the level of 60%. Furthermore, the Law envisages the fiscal strategy to be proposed by the Government for the period of its mandate, and adopted by the Parliament. This document establishes main fiscal goals that are to be achieved in the mid-term period and it is a basis for planning the mid-term and annual policies. This systemic law defines the concept of budgetary inspector, his/her scope of work and his/her competences. Additionally, punitive measures have been established for the acts contrary to the provisions of the Law, and depending on the offense - the fine that the person responsible is obliged to pay is prescribed, in the amount of 200 – 1,000 euros for minor offences and 400 – 4,000 for serious offences.
