Increase in government revenue
In the central government budget proposal for 2011, the total revenue and expenditure amount to NOK 1 113 and 960 billion respectively. Compared to the approved budget for 2010, this constitutes an increase in revenue of NOK 139 billion.
The increase in central government revenue amounts to 14 per cent compared to the approved budget of 2010. This is mainly due to increased revenue from petroleum activity.
Central government expenditure increased by NOK 53 billion, or 6 per cent. The growth in transfers to local government is the most significant, with an increase of 14 per cent, or NOK 21 billion.
The surplus before net transfers to the Government Pension Fund - Global is NOK 153 billion.
Statistics Norway has updated the table for central government revenue and expenditure by type. The table now contains the central government budget proposal for 2011, the approved budget for 2010, and accounting figures for previous years. |
The central government budget for 2011 was released on 5 October, and more information on the budget can be found on the Ministry of Finance’s website at http://www.statsbudsjettet.dep.no/Statsbudsjettet-2011/English/ |
