A household for a few months: Significantly later than usual, the budget for the current year will overcome an important hurdle. For this, the budget committee really accelerated.
The federal budget for the current year. After the last changes, the Bundestag’s budget committee decided in the evening with an budget of around 502.5 billion euros and new debt alone in the core budget of almost 82 billion euros. In addition, there are another billion dollar loans from special pots for the Bundeswehr and the infrastructure, so that in the end more than 140 billion euros are likely to pay new debts.
The Bundestag is to finally vote on the 2025 budget during the session week from September 16 to 19. Because of the early Bundestag election and government formation, the ministries have only been working with a preliminary housekeeping since the beginning of the year, which significantly limits their financial scope.
