President’s veto rejected but some proposals to be realized through budget amendments
PoliticsUlaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ The Parliament discussed and rejected the President’s veto on State Budget for 2019 and the accompanying legislation and parliamentary resolutions at today’s plenary meeting. 82.6 per cent of voted MPs backed to reject the veto.
However, the Budgetary Standing Committee made a proposal to
make amendments to the budget so that some proposals from President Kh.Battulga
can be realized through the amendments and the most MPs supported it. Specifically,
the parliament accepted the President’s proposal to create financial resource for
establishing an industry complex, where animal-origin raw materials are
processed and exported. “2018 Budget revenue is expected to be outperformed by MNT1
trillion. Therefore, the issue can be solved through the amendments,” said head
of the Budgetary Standing Committee B.Choijilsuren.
