Summary/Abstract: Public expenditure is the main instrument for performing the tasks of the state. In Poland, the structure of public expenditure is characterized by a relatively high share of fixed expenses. It is the opposite of flexible expenses used for funding new challenges to be dealt with by the government. The paper emphasizes the need to carry out reforms to expand the "space" for free decision-making in terms of budgetary policy. It also discusses methods of increasing the flexibility of the state budget expenditure.
