What does the bill do?
The bill changes the Deficit Reduction and Budget Expenditure Limitation Law by increasing the permitted percentage of growth in budget expenditure for 2025. Under the amendment, the permitted rate of growth in expenditure will increase, with part of this increase (up to 56% of an eligible amount) allocated to security needs stemming from significant military operations, and another part (up to 40%) to civilian needs stemming directly from those operations. This increase will not be counted in calculating the expenditure limit for the following years.
