Answering the questions of the deputies, Finance Minister Mehmet Şimşek said that municipalities are not helped in principle.

Look, when you compare it to the budget, it's probably about 1 in a thousand. In 2014, again, within this framework, 11 million 378 thousand. Now, this year the budget will be about 450 billion pounds, when you divide it. Therefore, we do not help any municipality here, except in very exceptional cases. ” he spoke.

Regarding the complementary allowance, Minister Şimşek stated that the Republic of 1924 Constitution has been in existence since the first years of the Republic. Explaining that he is in almost all of the exact account laws, Şimşek said, “You, for example, say that this year our tax revenues came out more than we anticipated and we transferred this to investment, but such an investment was not foreseen before. Therefore, we also have revenues due to need. For example, this year we predicted the budget deficit of 33,5 billion liras, we will close around 24-25 billion liras. In other words, we have achieved the target we have foreseen in the budget very easily. Despite two elections, despite the turmoil in the Middle East, despite the crisis in Russia, despite the crisis in Europe, we have achieved the budget open target. But here, let's say that investment spending is more than expected, and since there is additional spending in this framework, additional compensation is being received here, but as I said, there is complementary benefit since 1924, it is not the first time applied. ” He spoke in the form.

In a question about the attitude of the police during the protests of teachers yesterday in Ankara, Şimşek said, “We are very respectful of all of our employees to use the democratic rights of our trade unions. I don't know the details of yesterday's events, I think if there is a wrong must be done necessarily. Ben

Stating that financial literacy is an issue that should be emphasized by this country and that it should be educated in schools, Şimşek pointed out that if this happens, the citizen may be able to take a more correct position from time to time, from public resources to many other dimensions.

In 2002, $ 64,5 billion of the public, $ 22 billion of the Central Bank, hence $ 88,5 billion. As for the debt of the private sector; the private sector's debt is $ 278 billion. Therefore, the total external debt of the public and private sectors is $ 401,7 billion. If you divide this into national income. The Treasury provided a guarantee of $ 5,3 billion, a guarantee of debt. These are related to 3 projects, one Eurasia Tunnel is two, the third is the bridge, and the third is the Izmit Bay Crossing Bridge. These are in any way because they are already economically reasonable, logical, rational projects. Look, on project basis, $ 5,3 billion so far, and since 1999 there has been no guarantee of such debt undertakings. But all the obligations of the previous periods - if I do not remember wrong, let friends come out from the treasury bulletin - 33 billion. The treasury publishes this newsletter every month, and we will send you a copy of this newsletter. ”
