Croatian lawmakers passed the country's 2020 budget on Thursday, after the ruling majority rejected all but one of more than 300 amendments proposed by MPs.

The final budget projects a 2.5 percent GDP growth in 2020, and sees total revenues at 145.1b kuna (€19.5 billion), spending at 147.3 b kuna (€19.8 billion), with a planned deficit of around 2.2b kuna (€296 million), or 0.5 percent of GDP.

Compared to the original 2019 budget – which has been revised since – the projected revenues increased 6.7 percent, while government spending is up by around 5.0 percent.
