How Parliament voted
The budget is not voted on as a whole. Parliament voted 3 times on individual appropriations and opposition alternatives, and the budget was adopted on the basis of those votes.
A passed act does not enter into force immediately: the President of the Republic confirms it, and it enters into force on the date set in the act.

Key points of the debate
Parliament debated the first supplementary budget for 2025, which focused on additional support for Ukraine and increasing defence procurement authorisations from domestic industry. All groups expressed strong support for defence investments and Ukraine. However, disagreements arose over the Government's economic policy, the adequacy of measures to foster economic growth, and the targeting of Kela reimbursements for healthcare.
- Does the supplementary budget contain sufficient measures to improve economic growth and employment?
- Are the increases in Kela reimbursements and the restrictions on fertility treatments fair?
- National Coalition PartyIn favour
The group strongly supported the proposal, viewing defence investments, reducing borrowing, and expanding Kela reimbursements as steps in the right direction.
”Puolustusmateriaalihankintoihin liittyviä tilausvaltuuksia kasvatetaan, jotta voimme tukea Ukrainaa entistä paremmin kotimaisella puolustusteollisuudella.”
— Juha Hänninen - Finns PartyIn favour
The group considered the supplementary budget responsible and stressed the importance of supporting the domestic defence industry and assisting Ukraine.
”Geopoliittinen tilanne on osin eskaloitunut nopeasti, ja eurooppalaisten valtioiden on jälleen kerran keskityttävä valtion ydintehtävään eli turvallisuuteen.”
— Riikka Purra - Christian DemocratsIn favour
The group supported the proposal and highlighted Parliament's unity in supporting Ukraine and the Government's work to balance the economy.
”Yksi asia yhdistää meitä kaikkia puolueita tässä salissa, ja se on Ukrainan asia. Haluamme seistä ukrainalaisten rinnalla ja ihan loppuun asti.”
— Peter Östman - Social DemocratsIn favour with reservations
The group gave its full support to defence appropriations and aid to Ukraine, but sharply criticised the lack of growth measures in the proposal and the Government's economic policy.
”Nämä panostukset turvallisuuteen ovat kyllä tämän lisätalousarvioesityksen parhainta antia, ja siitä aito kiitos hallitukselle.”
— Joona Räsänen - Centre PartyIn favour with reservations
The group unanimously supported aid for Ukraine and defence procurement, but voiced concern about tax revenue trends and the lack of economic growth.
”Meidän on oltava Ukrainan puolella, ja tämän pitää myös näkyä tuessa. Tämä on tärkeä asia. Tästä me kaikki olemme myös huolissamme.”
— Markus Lohi - GreensIn favour with reservations
The group supported stepping up aid to Ukraine, but expressed concern about purchasing power in the economy and demanded that Kela reimbursements for fertility treatments be extended equally to all.
”Sen sijaan tämän lisäbudjetin rahallisesti pienemmät kokonaisuudet kaipaisivat kyllä pieniä korjausliikkeitä, ne olisi ollut jopa varsin helppo tehdä.”
— Saara Hyrkkö - Left AllianceIn favour with reservations
The group deemed supporting Ukraine essential, but criticised the Government's economic line regarding cuts and the inequitable restrictions on Kela reimbursements.
”Mitä tulee Ukrainaan ja sen tukemiseen, tämä lisätalousarvio on ajassa kiinni. On tärkeämpää kuin ehkä koskaan, että me seisomme nyt Ukrainan rinnalla.”
— Timo Furuholm
