Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses guidelines for implementation of art. 107–109 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, from the point of view of state aid granted on the state and local level. Statistical analysis was carried out on state aid granted by EU Member States ‒ from the perspective of its impact on the local government sector debt of these countries. This analysis was carried out based on the linear regression model. The response variable (dependent variable Y) is the size of the local government sector debt, and explanatory variable (independent variable X) is the expenditure on state aid. Local government debt has many functions: it stimulates development, it allows to make qualitative and quantitative changes in the scope of local government public tasks. However, existing budgetary rules also restrict development. This should lead to verify the thesis that the amount of state aid granted by EU member should negatively correlate with the size of local government sector debt.
