NIK’s work plans for the years 2012–2016 were developed with consideration to certain social and economic conditions in the country’s economic and social development. Financial stability was considered the basic factor that allows for improving the citizens’ living conditions. In the course of formulating these conditions, two stages can be identified. During the first stage, in the years 2012–2013, focus was placed on the issues related to, among others, the budget deficit, infrastructure, business environment, national education, professional activity of the citizens, demography, research and development activities and the citizens’ security. At the other stage, comprising the years 2014-2015, the focus was on the issues related to improving the citizens’ living conditions and effective public assets management, national education and medical care. In that period, significant changes took place with regard to the development of annual work plans.
