The new extension of last year's state budget should be valid until the end of July, the members of the relevant parliamentary committee decided, considering in the second reading the so-called extension law for State Budget 2022. 

In the editing of the texts, they wrote not to use the funds accumulated in the Silver Fund (its purpose is to guarantee the sustainability of the state pension system). 

According to another decision, the lowest salary of civil servants will amount to BGN 780 (€398.78). 

It is expected that this week the bill will be approved in the second reading and in the plenary hall.
