Research on Fiscal Discipline in Austrian Constitution

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

I provide 4 results of interpretation and operation of articles for the fiscal discipline in Austrian constitution. Firstly, “Federal Budget Framework Act”, that has been assigned basis in the constitutional law since 2008, is a key factor in the fiscal discipline. Secondly, the fiscal discipline in constitutional law is insufficient for medium term. Thirdly, "the fiscal discipline by the National Assembly" has been strengthened since joining the European Stability Mechanism. Fourthly, there is a high possibility of the introduction of “the German type fiscal discipline” in Austria.
