07 May 2008 [09:46] - TODAY.AZ
Divan of Musavat opposition party discussed proposed amendments to the state budget of Azerbaijan.
According to Day.Az, the divan voiced concern that the amendments to the budget in mid year have become a negative tradition.

The fact that most receipts come from the Oil fund and this time 80% funds will be transferred there and the fact that 40% of these funds will be used for construction, raise these concerns.

"Musavat party considers that over 60% of the share of the oil sector in formation of the country's budget creates special concern and points the deepening crisis in the non-oil sector.

The party calls on the Azerbaijani authorities to consider the influence of continuing rise in prices, living conditions of the population and strengthen measures on social protection of the population.
