Bill: Budget proposal of November 2483
Details
Submitted by[?]: Likaton Coalition of the Willing
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This bill proposes to change the allocation of funds in the budget. It requires more than half of the legislature to vote yes. This bill will pass as soon as the required yes votes are in, or will be defeated if unsufficient votes are reached on the deadline.
Voting deadline: August 2484
Description[?]:
| The Immeressence, Inc. propose to adjust the government's spending budget to better address the economic and social situation of the Axis Mundi Likatonian Res Publica. In order to reduce spending, we have made 15% cuts across the board. In addition, those departments that represent the largest expenditure, Justice, Health, and Education, have received a further 10% reduction. We do not make these cuts lightly, but feel that until the issue of taxation and public spending are stabilised, we must be prudent. |
