Large increase in government revenues

The central government budget proposal for 2006 includes expenditures totalling NOK 669 billion and revenues totalling NOK 921 billion. Compared with the approved budget for 2005, this represents an increase in expenditures and revenues of 2.2 per cent and 17.2 per cent respectively.

The budget proposal for 2006 implies a 3.3 per cent increase in expenditures excluding the National Insurance Scheme. National Insurance Scheme expenditures will increase by 0.4 per cent. The operating surplus from petroleum extraction is estimated at NOK 121 billion, up 65.4 per cent compared with the budget for 2005.

The proposed budget implies a surplus of NOK 251 billion before net transfers to the Government Petroleum Fund. The corresponding figure for the approved budget for 2005 was NOK 130 billion.

Statistics Norway has updated the tables for central government revenues and expenditures by main items and expenditure by programme. The tables now contain the Bondevik Government's central government budget proposal for 2006, the approved budget for 2005, and accounting figures for previous years.
