Government at a Glance 2015
Country Fact Sheetwww.oecd.org/gov/govataglance.htm
Hungary has halved its fiscal deficit between 2007 and 2014,and exited from the Excessive Deficit Procedure of the European Union
Hungary’s fiscal balance was -2.6% of GDP in 2014. At the same time its gross debt – according to the Sys-tem of National Accounts definition – has gradually increased from 71.8% in 2007 to 96.6% in 2013 and to just above 100% (100.1%) in 2014. This remains below the OECD average that was 74.5% in 2007, and 109.3% in 2013.

Hungary does not yet make full use of its e-procurement systems
Hungary, like other OECD countries, announces procurement opportunities, provides tender documents, and notifies participants about the awarding of contracts through its e-procurement systems. But it does not uti-lise tools allowing for two-way communication, in particular electronic submission of bids, e-tendering and, as part of it e-auctions, electronic ordering and submission of invoices, and ex post contract management. These practices could further improve transparency and efficiency of public procurement. Development of e-procurement is one of the key priorities of the Hungarian government. A new procurement law is currently in front of Parliament aiming to implement new EU directives and e-procurement methods.

Satisfaction with public services is lower in Hungary than across the OECDwhile trust in government has improved between 2007 and 2014
60% of Hungarians are satisfied with health care services, compared to an average of 71% in OECD coun-tries. 56% are satisfied with the education system, compared to 67% on average across the OECD. 44% express confidence in the judicial system, compared to 54% on average in OECD countries. At the same time confidence in government has increased by eight percentage points from 25% in 2007 to 33% in 2014, although it is still below the OECD average of 42%.

GOVERNMENT OUTPUTS AND OUTCOMES
Notes Fiscal balance as reported in the System of National Accounts (SNA) framework, also referred to as net lending (+) or net borrowing (-) of government, is calculated as total government revenues minus total government expenditures. Structural fiscal balance, or underlying balance, represents the fiscal balance adjusted for the state of the economic cycle (as measured by the output gap which resulted as the dif ference between actual and potential GDP) and one-off fiscal operations. Government gross debt is reported according to the SNA definition, which dif fers from the definition applied under the Maastricht Treaty. It is defined as all liabilities that require payment or payments of interest or principal by the debtor to the creditor at a date or dates in the future. All debt instruments are liabilities, but some liabilities such as shares, equity and financial derivatives are not debt.

Government at a Glance 2015With a focus on public administration, OECD Government at a Glance 2015 provides readers with a dashboard of key indicators assembled with the
goal of contributing to the analysis and international comparison of public sector performance across OECD countries. Indicators on public finances
and employment are provided alongside composite indexes summarising aspects of public management policies, and indicators on services to
citizens in health care, education, and justice. Government at a Glance 2015 also includes indicators on key governance and public management
issues, such as regulatory management, budgeting practices and procedures, public sector integrity, public procurement and core government
results in terms of trust in institutions, income redistribution and efficiency and cost-effectiveness of governments.
