Discussion postponed: data lacking

Discussion on a financial plan has been postponed next week in Parliament due to a new financial plan that no one was presented. It is clear that it is not clear how the government intends to undertake proclaimed optimization, according to the parliamentary chairman of the Progress.

There are no measurable goals in the government’s financial plan nor a scale for all the financial plan. However, these are data that has been followed by a financial plan in recent years.

« They have published that they intend to streamline about 110 billion, it is nowhere to be stated where they intend to streamline or in what way. Not how the priorities for the distribution of funds for these projects, » says Ingibjörg Isaksen, parliamentary chairman of the Progressive Party, in conversation with mbl.is.

The data not added for next week’s discussions

After Stefán Vagn Stefánsson, MP for Progress, had drawn attention to this in Parliament earlier today, we took a lot of discussion about whether the financial plan was in conflict with the Public Finance Act.

Parliamentary chairmen met with the President of Parliament and came to the conclusion of waiting for discussions on the financial plan until next week, possibly Tuesday, so that MPs could prepare in line with the information that is in the financial plan.

However, this data will not be added to the financial plan, but the idea, according to the Minister of Finance, is that the Minister of Finance, according to the Minister of Finance, is that the data comes with the Minister’s annual reports.

Data on optimization « not exist »

So don’t you get the data for next week’s discussions?

« They have released that the data is probably not accessible. They do not exist, obviously, certainly they can’t hand us. We had been trying to ask for this data for the debate next week, but it is not, » says Ingibjörg.

Ingibjörg says that in recent years this data has been available so that the government’s actual policy can be examined.

« Today, the Minister of Finance and the Economic Affairs acknowledged in unprepared inquiries that the objectives and scale for the field of affairs are not in this plan as it was before and that they must be submitted under the law.

The work of « below all caves »

Hildur Sverrisdóttir, parliamentary party chairman of the Independence Party, says the working methods are below all the caves.

« This came as a surprise to us and we responded by requesting the President’s involvement. We are comfortable with this landing and that our views were met.
