The aim of the article is to present the evolution of the structure of the public finance sector’sincome and expenditure between 2004 and 2011 and an attempt to find and evaluate thedeterminants of those changes.The author verifies the hypothesis of a systematic increase in significance of the state budgetand appropriated funds as instruments of the redistribution of wealth occurring together with theprocesses of centralisation of income in government sub-sector and decentralisation ofexpenditures (due to increased transfers to the local government sub-sector). In order to verify thishypothesis data concerning income and expenditures of the public finance sector between 2004and 2011 has been standardised, aggregated and analysed in the most crucial cross-sections.Issues raised in the article are extremely important in the context of remedial actions and anongoing discussion in economic circles on the role of the expenditure rules in public financesector. That being so, the report brings high value to the financial sciences and economics.
