The new version of the Rozpočet.sk portal has introduced a number of novelties
The new version of the Rozpočet.sk portal contains several significant novelties and improvements. Along with detailed information about current amounts of incomes and expenditures in budget headings, you may also find here data about other public administration entities, such as Sociálna poisťovňa (the Social Insurance Agency), state medical facilities or Národná diaľničná spoločnosť (the National Motorway Company) and also about local governments, down to the level of individual towns and municipalities. It is possible to see any figures also retrospectively. Third parties may have access to open data from the Budget Information System also through the API interface.
“Rozpočet.sk uses data from the Budget Information System, which has been helping prepare and manage the Slovak Republic’s budget for over 20 years. At the time of its gradual extension it was one of the important tools used for consolidating public finances in Slovakia,” says Marián Marek, the General Manager of PosAm, which is in charge of development of the Budget Information System, the Financial Statements Register and the Rozpočet.sk portal.
In addition to figures, the portal also contains educational videos with basic information about the budget, its preparation and use of public finances which may be used by schools. M. Marek adds: “We believe that the portal will help everyday people better understand how a budget is prepared and how public finances work”.
In addition to the Budget Policy Section of the MoF SR, the Rozpočet.sk portal was also developed by the Financial Policy Institute, the authors of the Value For Money project, as well as external consultants from non-profit organizations.
