Lisätalousarviokäytäntö

Lisätalousarviokäytäntö refers to the budgetary process in Finland that allows for adjustments to the state budget during the fiscal year. The main state budget is approved by Parliament before the year begins, but unforeseen circumstances or changes in economic conditions may necessitate supplementary appropriations or amendments. The government, in its role as the executive branch, proposes these additions or changes. These proposals are then submitted to Parliament for consideration and approval. Lisätalousarviokäytäntö ensures that the state's finances can adapt to evolving needs and economic realities, providing flexibility in public expenditure management. Such supplementary budgets typically address unexpected revenue shortfalls, urgent spending needs, or significant shifts in economic forecasts that were not accounted for in the original budget. The process requires parliamentary scrutiny to maintain transparency and accountability in public finance.
