Today, continued the Prime Minister of Georgia, we will consider the draft budget for year 2008 where rather significant changes will be made. In practice, the budget is now taking the final look. Our top priorities are the same again: the social sphere, education sphere and extra expenses in those directions; next year the expenses in energy sphere will be considerably decreased because this year we are finalizing solution of all problems and, in practice, the sector has been already formed. If something is to be made in this sector more, this is attraction of the investment capital to new generation objects; will be continued investments for improvement of road infrastructure. These are our main directions.
At the investment forums we will also discuss on preservation of economic growth rates of Georgia on the high level, - stated the Prime Minister in the end.
