More than half of the total corresponds to public transport. The concession of regular national passenger transport lines will absorb 61 million between the 2027 and the 2031. The budget provides 12.3 million for the first financial year i 12.2 million annually between the 2028 and the 2031 The document explains that the increase in expenditure derives from the increase in users and the free service, as well as the improvements introduced, with more frequencies, new lines and wider territorial coverage.

The second big block is CTRASA. The order program for the development and exploitation of the Comella Waste Treatment Center (CTRASA) leave 37.6 million between the 2027 and the 2031

Only the 2027 there are more than nine million planned, while the annuities of the main activity are between the 7 and the 7.4 million during the rest of the period. Between public transport and CTRASA total 98.6 million, close to 85% of all the multi-year commitments planned for these five years.

Housing is the third area with the most weight.

The lease for the expansion of the University of Andorra sum 1.2 million until 2031. The rest of the commitments are of smaller volume: 1.01 million for the future shared electric bicycle service, with an additional contribution from the commons, still to be decided; 451,255 euros for the granting of theNational Heliport i 400,000 euros for the exploitation of the central deposit of explosive substances.

These annuities do not imply that all contracts are legally unalterable. The recruitment regulations provide modification or resolution mechanisms and, in service concessions, even rescue for reasons of public interest. However, early termination of a concession may lead to compensation for the successful tenderer, so that an eventual resolution does not necessarily equate to saving the annuities previously planned. The cost and consequences would depend in each case on the regulations and of the conditions applicable to each contract.
