Net one-offs: Government transactions having a transitory budgetary effect that does not lead to a sustained change in the budgetary position. By nature, one-off and temporary measures have only a temporary influence on the headline and the cyclically-adjusted fiscal position. Their impact on the general government balance is concentrated in one or a very limited number of years.Such measures are non-recurrent . When deciding whether a particular measure is non-recurrent, the measure should be assessed in the context of the chain of measures of the same type. For instance, although each investment project is unique, a specific investment decision should be seen in the context of a continuity of investment decisions over time. As a rule, such measures should therefore not be considered as one-off and temporary measures, unless their size is exceptional.
