State budget — Financial year 2015 (results and management)

On 25 May 2016, the Court of Auditors published its report on the State budget in 2015, carried out pursuant to Article 58 of the Organic Law on Financial Laws, on the basis of, inter alia, 63 budget implementation notes. The state budget execution in 2015 is characterised by an improvement in the budgetary balance, which remains at a high level. Revenues were close to forecasts. Expenditure control in 2015 is incomplete and its results remain fragile. The conditions for sustainable control of State expenditure are not yet met. This report is available on [the Court’s website] (https://www.ccomptes.fr/fr/publications/le-budget-de-letat-en-2015-resultats-et-gestion). The published files correspond to the data used in the preparation of the report.
