and economic affairs within the framework of the general
budget.
(2) The President of the Republic shall cause to be submitted to
the National Assembly proposals of total expenditure entered
into the budget as an appropriation bill and proposals for
taxes, fees and other levies as well as borrowing, investment
or State saving bonds as financial bills.
(3) The National Assembly shall adopt the general budget bill,
chapter by chapter including schedules, and it shall adopt the
total appropriation bill. Where the law is passed, detailed
estimates as specified in the general budget shall not be
exceeded save by a supplementary law. Surplus funds over
revenue estimates and funds out of the legal reserve shall not
also be spent save by a supplementary appropriation law.
Private Member Financial Bills
112 No member of the National Assembly shall, outside the context
of the deliberations of the draft general budget, present any
private financial bill that entails abolition, remittance or alteration
of any tax, fee or other public revenue source or appropriation
or levy upon public funds other than service fees or pecuniary
penalties.
Provisional and Supplementary Financial Measures
113 (1) Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 109 (2) above, the
President of the Republic may wherever he/she deems it
appropriate for public interest, make a presidential order
having the force of law, providing that the imposition of any
tax, or fee or the amendment thereof shall come into force,
pending submission of a bill requiring the same to the
National Assembly. When that financial bill is adopted or
rejected, the force of the presidential order shall cease
without the rejection or amendment of the bill having
retrospective effect.
(2) Where the procedure of adopting the general budget and the
appropriation bill is delayed beyond the beginning of the
financial year, expenditure shall continue pending adoption of
the general budget, in accordance with the estimates
approved for the previous year, as if the same has been
appropriated by law for the new year.
