Abstract The paper analyses the amendments to the German financial constitution introduced by the 2006 Basic Law reform. The analysis mainly focuses on three aspects: the so-called joint tasks provided for in articles 91a and 91b GG (Gemeinschaftsaufgaben), the federal financial grants for strategic investments of the Länder (Finanzhilfen, art. 104b GG) and the responsibility of the Länder for international financial agreements (art. 109 c. 5 and 104a c. 6 GG). The reform abolishes the join tasks related to the construction and maintenance of Universities and other educational institutions. It also establishes that the other joint tasks shall be entirely regulated by federal legislation. The reform introduces new limitations to the Finanzhilfen grants. The Federation can subsidise strategic Länder investments only when it has legislative power on that specific issue. Finally, the reform introduces explicit criteria for sharing the financial accountability between Federation and Länder in case of violation of European and international economic agreements. |
