The Budget Parliamentary Committee has increased the money earmarked for the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences by nearly 10 million euros at the expense of the budget of the Supreme Judicial Council. The change was made during the second reading of the state budget bill and the final decision will be taken in plenary hall. The additional financing will be used for projects developed by BAS scientists. A week ago, the academy threatened protests if they did not receive a  budget hike to ensure the proper functioning of the institution.
