ARTICLE 85
All revenues and expenditures of the Commonwealth must be estimated for each fiscal year and entered in the budget.
The budget is adopted by law before the beginning of the fiscal year.
Appropriations are ordinarily granted for one year; in special cases they may be granted for a longer period. Otherwise, provisions extending beyond the fiscal year or not relating to the national revenues and expenditures or their administration, are inadmissible in the national budget law.
The National Assembly may not increase appropriations in the budget bill or insert new items without the consent of the National Council.
The consent of the National Council may be dispensed with in accordance with the provisions of Article 74.
