A 2026-os költségvetés-elemzésből
3.7 billion Ft a year for the systems and premises of a body monitoring a problem it cannot solve.
IT infrastructure, data subscriptions, professional services, and offices for an oversight authority whose analytical output cannot eliminate the rent produced by discretionary grant allocation.
Roughly 935 Ft per taxpayer per year — 3,667.2 millió Ft in operating costs that begin saving 733 millió Ft already in Year 1 as contracts run off and are not renewed.
Amit látsz — és amit nem
The seen: the data systems, external audit contracts, and office premises that let the Authority produce detailed annual integrity reports. The unseen: the contractors whose contracts expire quietly and are not renewed — and the working household whose tax funds an analytical apparatus whose findings redirect the same discretionary rent rather than eliminating it.
Ellenvetés
"Better oversight at least makes corruption harder — removing the infrastructure makes the problem worse."
Válasz
Oversight that polices the contest for a rent makes the contest cleaner; it does not remove the rent. The rent is removed by reducing what is allocated by discretion — fewer state tenders, more formula-based transfers, less scope for the choice of contractor to be a prize. As the discretionary allocation shrinks, so does the monitoring workload and the infrastructure that supports it. The operating line glides down linearly over five years as contracts run to term; no counterparty's contractual right is cut short.
Share if you think the goal is to shrink the rent, not just to police who captures it.

Indoklás
The operating costs of the Authority — premises, utilities, IT systems and data subscriptions, professional services, external analytical and audit support, communications. At 3,667.2 millió Ft this is a substantial operating line, roughly 81% of the size of the personnel line, which is consistent with a body whose output is data-intensive analytical work supported by external systems and contracted expertise. These are not payroll costs and they are not protected by the severance mechanism: contract counterparties on the Authority's service and supply contracts are protected by contract run-off — their agreements are honoured to their terms — not by employee transition. As those contracts reach their natural expiry across the transition window they are not renewed, and the non-payroll operating cost falls toward zero as the Authority's workload winds down with the programming period.
Átállási mechanizmus
Phase-Out over 5 years, linear glide on the non-payroll operating cost. Existing service and supply contracts run to their terms and are not renewed; premises and systems are released as the headcount attrites; the line declines from 3,667.2 millió Ft to zero across the five-year window. There is no severance component — the protected interest here is contractual, honoured through run-off, not through employee bridges.
Érintett csoportok
The Authority's service contractors and suppliers — IT and data providers, professional-services firms, landlords. Each is protected by the run-off of its existing contract to term; none holds a right to renewal. No employee livelihood is at stake in this line.
