Budget - salvation? But not the country

Two years ago he was not. Today's lying, just blatantly lying.

from the transcript of the morning session of the Verkhovna Rada on 8 October

After 2009 the Ministry of Finance will have a long scrape down his professional reputation - even in hot soapy water, and nazhdachkoy. As reiterated the three budget day (6-8 October) in the Verkhovna Rada, during which MPs from the filing of Deputy Finance Minister Anatoly Myarkovskogo dealt with the outcome, first in 2008, then - the first half of 2009-th, and finally, the presentation discussed the state budget Project 2010-th.

As it turned out, except Myarkovskogo, budget-2010 the government is not interesting to anyone. It seems that the Cabinet plays out in mid-September, presented to the public only that budget developed by the project. Therefore, the deputy embrasure was thrown Anatoly Myarkovsky in splendid isolation, and he fought for three days from the claims of people's representatives. But the bad is the Ministry of Finance, who can not build up the numbers so that it turned black (or at least it seemed) white ...

From embellishment money, naturally, not added. Even in winter, ZN draws attention to the manipulation of the Ministry of Finance with a list of budget, which allowed Yulia Tymoshenko, even in the darkest months of the crisis report the implementation of the budget plan for income. And, thus, avoid sequestration budget - objectively necessary but extremely unpopular for a politician, going to vote for president.

In the June interview with the Acting Minister of Finance Igor Umansky ZN put the question bluntly - anyone who wants to cheat when to stop this bad practice? At that the Head of the Ministry of Finance answered in that spirit that the painting - an internal document from the Ministry, and nothing wrong in adjusting the numbers he does not see.

In September, at the presentation of the budget in the Ukrainian House, Prime also not admitted to the catastrophe of public finance, moving into a discussion of the budget deficit: We certainly do not go out on the fact of implementation of the budget with an exponent 2.96. At most, what we will go because, as I now feel, and so, as we expect, it is up to 5%.

Alas, none of the invitees do not ask questions - where did almost double the growth of the deficit, if we are repeatedly told that the budget revenues on a regular basis, starting in January, surpassed?

By early October, it became impossible to hide the obvious. Manipulating figures for all nine months (in September alone correction of general fund revenues to decrease amounted to 5,9 billion UAH., Or 40% of the original painting!) Led to the fact that in the fourth quarter of the general fund to collect as much 76 billion UAH., or 41,6% of the annual plan. But ... to recognize virtually a fait accompli failure of the annual plan of income had not the heart nor the prime minister nor the acting Minister of Finance. Make it had to Deputy Finance Myarkovsky.

Well, if the officials their ideas of honor. In a previous publication on the draft budget-2010, identifying fraud really unpleasant living wage for the disabled, we hypothesized that Yuliya apologize for subordinates and restore justice. And also find the real sources of funding for higher pensions (even called options).

Alas, no apology, no adjustments or professional discussion on the cost of living for the disabled for three weeks and followed.

not apologized for the government and the manual control of the budget this year for the actual sequestration, when, according to the head of the Accounting Chamber Valentyn Symonenko, up to eight months to be implemented about 80% of government social programs. What can we say about non-social programs and support industries ...

Judging by the discussion in BP, not better the situation will be in
2010. Tell me, please, if we are laying the budget of 120 billion UAH. Borrowings plus $ 45 billion of state guarantees, tell me, is that - a balanced budget or not? - Vainly inquired Mykola Azarov. Speaker of the Ministry of Finance so famously managed the figures that stubby 7,4 billion UAH. Defense allocated to the general fund, almost doubled, and funds to support the coal industry which not only recorded - even the state guarantees for loans! - To get a decent figure of 21,6 billion UAH.

Within three days there were many interesting things. When the deputy three times (!) Away from a substantive reply to the question of MP Arzhevitin for the filling of the Deposit Guarantee Fund of individuals, but on the other seeks to answered questions through time, citing the absence of the figures, the table was clear: professional work here and does not smell.

During the budget submission did not clarify the issues of inter-budgetary relations. If the new Budget Code, vetoed, and to overcome a veto in the session hall, it seems, are not collected, is it time for the developers of the budget rewind back when he returned to direct the public relations budget, with seven hundred local budgets? That is, to bring the budget into line with existing rules of BC.

But with acclaimed sotsstandartami all, alas, is so predictable that even do not want to talk. Whatever completed next week saga of the adoption on second reading of the law litvinovtsa Zarubinsky, Cabinet to make adjustments in the already prepared a draft budget-2010 is not going to. Whether force the him to do so thin in the current legislative budget committee BP - a rhetorical question.

What can the committee, it is the words of its chairman Nikolay Derkach declare unconfirmed incorporated in the draft budget in macroeconomic indicators, incorrect reporting of public debt in several currencies in the presence of our country, the only legitimate - the hryvnia and the vague direction of spending
50 billion UAH. (!) To recapitalize banks. To force the government to act strictly according to the law committee has not yet succeeded.

While our darlings of the Party and government quarrel among themselves, the Tymoshenko government can steer public finance, as he wants and knows. He wants a lot, can - badly. But what of the fellows on the promises and manipulations!
