It includes maintaining external debt for budget entities at USD 79.1 bn, unchanged from September 2024. The government is also working to trim these debts by USD 1-2 bn in the mid-term, which will lead to a gradual improvement in our debt position, longer debt maturities, and lower interest dues, the source added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The widening shortfall is attributed to a fall in non-tax revenues coupled with increased <\/strong><strong>social spending<\/strong>, our source added. Social spending is projected to increase by 16.8% to EGP 742.6 bn in the next fiscal year, while non-tax revenues are set to come in at EGP 464.9 bn, down from a previous target of EGP 600 bn in the previous year, which was then revised down to EGP 455.7 bn. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The drop in non-tax revenues can partly be attributed to the decline in Suez Canal <\/strong><strong>receipts<\/strong>, which <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/a273be65-fea6-42f3-83d7-4ed62c5a9e06\/regional-escalations-has-cost-egypt-some-usd-7-bn-in%253cmark%253e-suez-canal-revenues%253c%2Fmark%253e\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">cost us<\/a> some USD 7 bn (c.
