The opportunities of the system of local government financing currently used in Estonia have been exhausted.
The drafting and passage of the most important politico-economic document of the year, the state budget, are regulated in Estonia chiefly by three laws: the Constitution, the State Budget Act and the parliamentary rules of procedure.
The present local government funding system is becoming obsolete. The great differences in income levels and the inexorable growth of the tax-free minimum make rapid and cardinal reform of the system necessary.
The objective of the economic policy is to specify the means by which maximum profitability can be achieved with limited resources.
