This paper analyzes the composition of public expenditure in the Slovak Republic. It also assesses the relative efficiency of spending in education and health. The Slovak Republic spends more on social benefits and less on wages compared to the EU and OECD average. While it manages to translate the low expenditures into outcomes in an efficient manner in the education sector, this is not true for health. Moreover, the recent increases in expenditure levels have not improved outcomes, suggesting that significant budgetary savings could be achieved through increases in efficiency. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2012/173 606 $aGovernment spending policy$zSlovakia 606 $aEducation spending$2imf 606 $aEducation$2imf 606 $aEducation: General$2imf 606 $aEnvironmental Taxes and Subsidies$2imf 606 $aExpenditure$2imf 606 $aExpenditures, Public$2imf 606 $aHealth care spending$2imf 606 $aNational Government Expenditures and Education$2imf 606 $aNational Government Expenditures and Health$2imf 606 $aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: General$2imf 606 $aPublic finance & taxation$2imf 606 $aPublic Finance$2imf 606 $aRedistributive Effects$2imf 606 $aSocial Security and Public Pensions$2imf 606 $aTaxation and Subsidies: Externalities$2imf 606 $aTotal expenditures$2imf 607 $aSlovakia$xAppropriations and expenditures 607 $aSlovak Republic$2imf 615 0$aGovernment spending policy 615 7$aEducation spending 615 7$aEducation 615 7$aEducation: General 615 7$aEnvironmental Taxes and Subsidies 615 7$aExpenditure 615 7$aExpenditures, Public 615 7$aHealth care spending 615 7$aNational Government Expenditures and Education 615 7$aNational Government Expenditures and Health 615 7$aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: General 615 7$aPublic finance & taxation 615 7$aPublic Finance 615 7$aRedistributive Effects 615 7$aSocial Security and Public Pensions 615 7$aTaxation and Subsidies: Externalities 615 7$aTotal expenditures 676 $a332.1/52 700 $aGrigoli$b Francesco$01127643 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820536303321 996 $aPublic Expenditure in the Slovak Republic$94110872 997 $aUNINA
