Roma Times continues to publish the reactions to the reports of some of the Ministries on the implementation of the separate budgets in the implementation of the Roma Strategy 2020-2023. The Network for systemic and permanent solutions for the Roma community in R. North Macedonia also responds to these reports. It reacts to the method of implementation as well as the amount of allocated funds.
This time he refers to the Budget allocated to the Ministry of Education and Science. In its brief report, the Ministry of Education states that the implementation is carried out through two programs, Administration and Secondary Education
In the report on the Administration program, it is stated that in 2020 and 2021, about 10 million denars have been set aside, and for 2022 it has been increased to 17.1 million denars, and with the budget for 2023 being too long, it will amount to 18.9 million denars.
In the report it is noted that 13.4 million denars will be allocated mainly for contracts, while 5.5 million denars will be allocated for various transfers.
But unfortunately, nothing is specifically written about what Contracts and Various transfers are meant. That remains an unknown.
For the second program under Secondary Education, the budgets from 2020 to 2022 were between 12 and 14 million. denars. For 2023, the lowest budget of about 10.1 million denars is planned. It is dominant that those funds will be realized mostly for Subsidies and transfers.
But unfortunately, according to the reaction of the Network for System Solutions for those separate 150,000 euros in the report, there is no description of the type of Subsidies and transfers in question.
Is it easier to manipulate the report without a given description of Subsidies and transfers or ....?
Or maybe they want to allocate 45,600 euros from those funds (for 38 Roma families 1,200 euros each) as compensation for the judgment passed by the European Court against the Republic of Macedonia for the segregation and discrimination of Roma children - students in two primary schools in Shtip and Bitola
Indefiniteness as much as you want!
The analysis will continue in the coming days.
