The state budget by ministry
How much each ministry, and each institution, got from a year's state budget, and what share of that year's whole budget that is. The amounts are those of the budget voted for the year, from the Ministry of Finance's open files.
How to read the figures
These are the budget credits approved for the year, that is the money that can be paid out in it, from every source: the state budget proper, external loans, non-reimbursable external funds and the institutions' own revenue. They are not actual spending and take no account of the revisions made during the year.
"Of the budget" is the ministry's amount divided by the sum of all institutions in the same year, which is the state budget's own total; "of GDP" is the same amount divided by the year's gross domestic product, so that you can compare years without the effect of inflation and economic growth. The state budget is not all that the state spends: pensions, health insurance and unemployment have separate budgets (the Labour Ministry shows only the transfer from the state budget to them), and counties and towns have their own. "Ministry of Finance – General actions" is the separate line where the budget puts interest, aid to local budgets and other general spending, so it does not add to the ministry proper.
The budget by year
The amounts in lei are those voted each year, not adjusted for inflation; the percentages can be compared across years. The red line is the year's inflation (the harmonised index of consumer prices, annual average, Eurostat), on the right-hand axis. Click a year to see all its institutions below. "State budget only" counts, in every year, only the state budget source (chapter 5001), the one amount that 2013 and the later years share; "All sources" adds, from 2014, the external credits and the non-reimbursable external funds.
The 2021 state budget
- Total, the budget credits of all institutions
- 269.1 bn lei
- The same as the total in the budget's annex 2 (269,111,581 thousand lei).
- Commitment credits
- 334.9 bn lei
- How much the institutions may commit through contracts that are also paid in later years. It is not money on top of the total above and is not in the percentages.
- As a share of GDP
- 22.7%
- The 2021 GDP is 1,186 bn lei, from Eurostat (the one the deficit and the debt are worked out with). The budget voted before the year is compared with the GDP that was realised; the latest years are estimates and can be revised.
Governments in office in 2021: Cîțu (23 Dec 2020 – 25 Nov 2021), Ciucă (25 Nov 2021 – 12 Jun 2023)A budget is drawn up by the government in office and voted by Parliament; the files do not say which government drew it up when there were several in the year, so we do not credit the budget to one.
