Main Findings of the 2009-2010 State Budget Proposal and the needs of the Arab citizens in Israel

An analysis of the 2009-2010 State Budget proposal and what has been allotted to the Arab citizens in Israel has revealed that although this group comprises 19% of the total population they will receive less than 5% of the governmental development funds and less than 6% of the salary budget allotted to government employees. Currently, a database that records a breakdown of the percentage of funds in the budget that are allocated to the Arab minority does not exist, however a breakdown of the budgets of most ministries shows that the percentages of funds allotted to Arabs are consistently and proportionately lower than the population. This report contains the main findings concerning budgets dating back to 1998.
