France — State budget by mission

Breakdown of the French State general budget by ministerial mission (latest finance law, payment credits). Different concept from « general government spending » (COFOG / Eurostat) which includes social security and local authorities — this is the central State alone (~€594bn in 2026 vs ~€1500bn for general government). Reading keys for the more opaque missions: • Refunds & tax credits (€146bn): technical line — VAT refunds, R&D tax credit (CIR), other tax credits flowing back to taxpayers. Not actual policy spending. State's « real » mission spending ≈ €448bn. • Financial commitments (€60bn): essentially debt servicing (interest payments). • Solidarity (€31bn): RSA, prime d'activité, AAH disability allowance. • Territorial cohesion (€23bn): housing aid (APL) + urban policy. • Police & gendarmerie (€26bn): national police + gendarmerie + civil security. • School education (€90bn): primary + secondary; higher education sits in « Research & higher education ».
