5.1.3 Allocation of public funds
All cultural institutions should be jointly financed by the state and local cultural budgets, as well as by their own resources (paid cultural services), according to the Law on Culture. Allocations made by the state should increase yearly, a condition fixed by law. Additional resources are collected via national funds for culture, which have been set up by executive bodies of the various cultural institutions. Self-governing local bodies, public unions, legal and physical entities can also create funds to support their cultural activities.
