the Government submitted the anti-crisis programme to the parliament,
after which the executive body approved the timetable stemming from
the programme. It was stressed that the Government had distinct
assessments over the created situation: the private direct investments
have been reduced, temporary freezing has taken place in the sphere of
mining industry, some investment programmes have been delayed, private
transfers have been reduced. In the Prime Minister's words, as a

payment balance and formation of the creditors' negative expectations
appear.
