Balearic budget slashed by 3 percent
Palma.—The Balearic government will have a budget of 3'574 million euros for next year, 2.7 percent less than this year.
But, while the decline may appear rather small, 22.4 percent of that money is going to be spent on clearing the public deficit, so in reality, once the debt, or a large part of it has been cleared, the government will have nearly a quarter less money than this year.
However, the government hopes to offset any losses to paying off the public deficit by introducing four new environmental taxes on super stores, the car hire industry, water consumption and nonreturnable beverage containers.
